Can from Waitrose, drunk at home. Light orange, hazy with a little bit of white head around the rim. Papaya, cantaloupe, a touch of banana and candy sugar in the aroma. Bittersweet taste, fresh and juicy but with an astringent note in the finish. Slightly watery body with mango and a light touch of ginger in the aftertaste. Well-carbonated. I was surprised by how much I liked this.

Can from Waitrose, Frimley. Labelled as 'AND UNION Unfiltered Lager'. Sweet dough and citrus aroma. An opaque pale gold. Frothy white head fades and gets blotchy. Light sweet, with the vaguest hint of bitterness. Banana, citrus, some sort of icing sugar sweetness. Light bodied but slick. Soft carbonation. Long dry finish. It's fine. Not 100% convinced over some of the sweetness and what I think of it, but overall low key and refreshing.

Can from Waitrose, Frimley. Low key citrus and caramel aroma. Orange amber. Slightly hazy.Thick fluffy white head (my pour may have contributed to this outcome). Sweet with a bitter core. A range of citrus fruit - from tangerine through to grapefruit. A touch quinine in the finish. Medium bodied. Slick. Fizzy carbonation. Dry finish. Not bad, could do with being less restrained.

Bottle at King's Head, Guildford. 16/11/17. Funky barnyard aroma, with added fruit. An opaque hazy gold. Thin but creamy white head. Light bitter for a millisecond. Then takes on a savoury dough taste with a sweet finish. Light bodied and thin. Fizzy carbonation. Long sweet cream chees finish. Couldn't work out if this one was nice or odd. Both, really.
