500ml bottle from Morrisons, online. Pours clear gold with small white head, reasonable retention Aroma and taste is floral, honey, lime, citrus zest, pale malts. Finish is moderate bitterness, tangy-lime and biscuit. Body is light, refreshing, moderate carbonation, unremarkable and too thin to hold the good flavours for long. Overall a decent bitter though.

330ml bottle from the brewery. Pours a clear gold, loose white head. Malty, twiggy feel, thankfully eschewing the unfermented wort route other trad brewers fave with a pleasant malty character, and a very light sweetness tucked within. Not bad.

500ml bottle from Dartmoor Brewery. Drunk at our lodge in Finlake, Devon. Pours a clear deep amber, off-white head. Expected a stout for some reason but comes across more of like an old ale, with an appealing caramel sweetness throughout, though generally quite mild-flavoured unfortunately

Golden colour with quick fading head. Has notes of straw and play doh. Rather dull and watery.
