Bottle from Oddbins in Aberdeen. It pours hazy yellow - gold with a thick white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, banana split, massive bubblegum character, melon and creaminess. The taste is bitter - sweet, crisp, tangy tinned pineapple, melon, sweet banana candy, slightly chalky, grass, green hops, slightly herbal, cracker and peppery spice with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Plenty going on here. The bubblegum on the aroma is pretty impressive. I’m not usually a fan of Sorachi, but it works here.

Bottle picked up at Oddbins, Union St Aberdeen. It pours cloudy golden with a thick, foamy white head. The aroma is fresh, sweet, zesty, stone fruits, apricot, nectarine, tangerine peel and white bread. The taste is crisp, dry, bitter, zesty, lemon, lemongrass, straw, cracker, white bread, cereal and grass with a drying finish. Light - medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Well rounded and quaffable. Stands out for a crowd of golden / blonde ales that’s for sure. Decent.
