On the fourth day of Christmas... Clear amber pour with a small white head. Aromas of malt, marmalade/candied orange (peel), some more citrus and caramel. Taste is quite similar. Quite nice overall, but not overly christmassy.

My son Ben was 40 this year (2024) and a London based friend sent him a Fortum & Mason Hamper for his birthday, two 440ml cans of this were in the said Hamper, Ben gave me one. I duly pre-positioned it at Auntie Sue's and drank it at her house on 23rd August 2024. It poured a bright, clean and clear golden colour with a white head. Hoppy, bitter and very drinkable.

Clear and golden with a frothy white head. Subdued malty nose with a hint of citrus, smooth and hoppy with floral and fruity notes

Bottle gifted to me on NYE from Fortnum & Mason. Pours a chestnut colour with a huge foamy beige head. Light aromas of caramel and citrus tones. Taste is caramel, more light citrus notes and a touch of nuts. Light earthy hop on the finish. Thin to medium body with low carbonation . Not bad but not very Christmasy.

Sample courtesy of SHIG, cheers Shawn! Golden colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head, and aroma of apple, woody, some mucky funk hints. Taste is tangy, apple, fleshy, woody, with some funk, and both bittersharp acidity & bittersweet tannins. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry tart & tannic finish. Quite drinkable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Fortnum & Mason Organic Devon Vintage Cider 2021 on 23 Jul 2024 at 20:11 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5.

Bottle from Fortnum & Mason, London. Clear but dark amber coloured with a thin head. Traditional styled ale with a light malty-sweetness, fused with a light hoppiness. Fairly earthy in design. Beyond its sell by date by 3 1/2 years but tastes fine.
