6.5/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 6 Texture 7 Overall 6.5
Hazy orange with a white head
A - predominently vanilla with a bit of peach
F - peach and lemon sherbert with smooth vanilla
it delivers everything it says on the can but I think for me the vanilla is a bit overpowering, I think it would better with the peach and lemon being more prominent.
Its not bad though, I'm often not a fan of flavoured beers but this does kind of work.
