Bottle. Mills online. Very gueuze like. Juicy. Lots of barrel. Lots of hop. Drinks super easy and clean. Class affair. Done 2 bottles in as many days.

Bottle. Bee, Darnall. Strongest shandy I’ve ever had 🤷🏻‍♂️ Deep pinky purple. Swede to match. I don’t know what this is supposed to be but I drank it like pop and could, at a push, have done another.

Can picked up by the missus from Home Bargains. £1.19! I mean it’s going to have to be shite to not be at least worth that. And it’s not. Far from it. Bit of a haze on a straw gold. Decent white foam. Crisp overall. Light hop bitterness. Sinks easy. Nice malts. Clean finish.

Bottle. Mills online. Hazed pale-ish copper colour. Thick noisy head settles to a nicely dense even pale ginger foam. There is a whiff of the maple syrup addition first up. Oak. Soft bretty funk. Wet leather. Background bready grain. Touch of orange peel and soft (festive, for some reason) spice. Taste is lightly tart with a well balanced sweetness. Super juicy throughout with brisk foamy carbonation. Light twang of citrus bitterness. Juicy bittersweet finish. Gloriously easy drinking.

Can. Morrison’s. 4 for 3 job. Murked up dirty gold. Slim off white foam. It’s no looker. Loads of savoury here. Big onion shizzle going off. Milky background. Nah. Stinks. Shite.

Can. Morrison’s. 4 for 3 job. Nearly clear pale gold. Slim sticky white foam. Nicely piny. Clean malts. Bit of old orange. Take has a malty sweetness first up with resinous pithy hop bitterness. A tad thin overall. Gets quite dry too. Thin bitter finish. I’d have a Jaipur at nearly 2 quid a pop less from the same shop, absolutely any day of the week.

Can. Morrison’s. 4 for 3 job. Fully hazed up pale gold. Very tidy dense bright white head. It’s a lovely swede tbf. Not too milky on the nose. Well, a bit. Lots of bright hop notes. Citrus peel and pith. Pineapple flesh. Some yellow melon. Taste is pleasantly bitter overall. Even some dryness here. Drinks easy with minimal milky sweetness. Bitter finish. Nice one. Pretty clean hazy.
