Bottle, curiously, from my local Wyevale garden centre. Pours clear dark amber with a small lasting off-white head. Aroma is very fruity, perfumed, hoppy, caramel and floral. Very sweet to taste, little bitterness. Towards medium body, oily texture, average to soft carbonation. Sweet finish. Too sweet overall.

Bottle from Lidl, Longford [100617]
Copper, clear, small head dissipating to nothing like a cider
Aroma of light citrus hops, caramel malts, light fruity malts
Taste of fruity caramel malts, touch of citrus, light bread, brown malt fruits
Palate - Soft carbonation which quickly dissipated away, flat and thin, light sweet fruity malts. FInish is a bit dry, then some sweet soft fruity caramel malt
Overall - Iffy bottle, flat as a pancake, not right
