Can at home in London - sourced from Kris Wines. Pours clear yellow-gold with a moderate, foamy white head. The nose holds dried pale malts, faint leafy hops, pine needles, tangerine peel. Light sweet flavour with notes of crispy pale grains, more pine needles, straw, lemon rind. Light bodied with average, massaging carbonation. Somewhat dry in the finish, with slight minerality, more citrus rind, hay. Maybe a touch faded, but it still drinks alright.

50cl can from Beer52.com. A hazy amber pour with a thin, scummy looking white head; aroma of pineapple and mango; sharp citrusy taste with a touch of pepper; and a dry fruity finish. Rather unappetising.

Keg @ Knott Bar, Manchester. Hazy yellow-blonde with a thin head. Has a light lager malt with lemon citrus offering up some flavour. Has a slight dryness and is arguably thin tasting.

Bottle shared in Hackney - thanks to Fergus. Pours clear honey-gold with a creamy, white head. Ripe citrus in the nose, pale bread, jammy orange. Light-medium sweet flavour with some sun-kissed honey, dry pale bread, bitter hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Sweet finish with more ripe and jammy citrus fruits, pale grains. So so overall.
