"Don't forget the pancakes on Jif Lemon day." A lemon heavy brew in both aroma and taste, although the sourness usurps the citrus from the fruit on this occasion, but it's a manageable sourness. Golden coloured.

Draft at The Village Inn, Twyning. Clear pale yellow, white head. Aroma of tropical and citrus fruits. Taste is the same, citrusy and kinda tropical, bittersweet. Light-medium body.
Thought this was acceptable entry-level craft beer and it makes sense now seeing Molson Coors had something to do with it. One of those inoffensive beers that's pleasant enough but is unmemorable.

Dark brown, opaque, with a short-lived light brown head. Roasted banana aroma. Moderately sweet taste, with a smooth, slightly rich, roasted caramel-banana aftertaste. Medium-bodied, with medium carbonation. Slightly alcoholic but pleasant.

very hazy pale yellow colour, large, dense ecru-ish white head; aroma of mango, pineapple, celery, tangerine, grapefruity, apricot, grassy and biscuity notes; taste has the same notes as can be felt in the aroma with definite hoppy bitterness; quite good one

Had it from Beer52 a while ago, but now on draft as well. Hazy yellow pour with a small, but stable white head. Malt, grain, citrus, some grass and tropical fruits. Not bad, given the ABV.

Slightly hazy golden pour with a small white head. Aroma is mainly malt with a hint of citrus. Taste is fairly weak, mainly malt, some fruit. It's sessionable, but I would not call it an IPA.
