500ml bottle: BB 28th April 2023. Brought back from the IoM by my friend Graham. TT now heavily stated on the bottle, but it's obviously the same beer with a new front label. Lovely clear amber body, white crown. Malty and semi-sweet with a nutty caramel aroma and taste, liked it.

Tap at Falcons Nest, Port Erin. Golden beer, small head. Aroma is not much, some malt, some hint of citrus. Taste is not much, some malt, some fruity citrus, fizzy, mediocre, inoffensive and easy to drink

Strange but pleasant! Pours pale gold with a tiny, bubbly white head and a subtle sweet malt aroma. Sweet caramel up front, a tiny kick of bitterness and sweetish grassy malt to finish things off

Pale amber with a frothy off-white head and a slightly hoppy, malty aroma. Bitter and malty, with a hint of lemon zest. My first Isle of Man rate, enjoyed on the ferry (Manannan) before leaving Liverpool!
