500ml bottle: found in a local Wye Vale garden centre. Poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard at home on 1st Nov 2014. Amber/copper body with a white, thin head. Hoppy lead in both the nose and taste, semi-bitter and refreshing but it lacks true oomph or character to set it apart from other such brews.

50cl bottle from Asda, Farnborough. A straw coloured pour with a white head; musty, honeyed aroma; full bodied grainy taste with some sweetness and a reasonable amount of grassy hops. A reason attempt at the Helles style.

Clear gold beer with a creamy head and light citrus aroma. Flavour is surprisingly earthy with light floral fruity hop coming after. Unspectacular but very drinkable.

Cask at The Haymarket. Pours clear pale gold, thin white head. Aromas are light biscuit, light lemon and floral notes. Taste brings a lightly spicy note, but otherwise sweet. Thin finish. OK.

Bottle. Pours light amber in colour, and clear. One finger short-lived head. Lots of hops and fruit in the aroma. Taste is a bit fruity, caramel, malt hints, lots of hop bitterness, with a medium mouthfeel. Nice.

Cask. Appearance is very clear orangey amber. A one finger white head. Fruity aroma with orange undertones and some malt. Taste is bitter and hoppy, with orange, citrus fruit, lemons, and a lengthy finish. Quite good.
