Green twist top 330ml bottle of Old World Village, Huntington Beach. Poured into an old Corsendonk stemmed tulip glass at my daughters in Laguna Hills on 3rd August 2025. Crystal clear golden body, white crown. Corn aroma and taste, fairly dry and bitter, this isn't a good advert for Armenia.

500ml can from an Asian store in Southern California, drank at my daughters in Laguna Hills on 2nd August 2025. Poured into an old Corsendonk stemmed tulip (twice), it looked happy, slight haze within it's golden colour, white crust on each pour. Pleasant enough without any real powerful aromas or flavours, some grassy and floral hints but it's just an easy going Pale Ale that isn't going to upset anyone. It's not going to excite many people either!

US Pint can from a Trader Joe's, poured into a La Chouffe stemmed tulip (twice) at Sarah Janes in Laguna Hills on 2nd August 2025. Strawberry blonde in colour, fast fading pale pink head. Weak strawberry aroma and taste, didn't take to it at all.

US Pint can from O'Sheas, drank at my Daughters in Laguna Hills on Saturday 2nd August 2025. Poured into an old Corsendonk stemmed tulip glass (twice). Slight haze in both pours, burnt orange colour, white crown which faded quickly. Citra and Mosaic hops rule the roost here, light malt base, grapefruit and oranges in the flavours, piney hints as it warms.
