Can via the online shop. Nearly black. Dense lasting lacing tan foam. Looks boss. Nose has hedgerow fruit. Twangy yeast. Savoury smoke. Bit of white chocolate, oddly. Taste is fruit tangy smoky and a tad sweet, before a woody earthy bitterness kicks in. Smooth and very easy drinking overall. Smoky fruity twang to finish.

Can. Morrisons. Fully hazy pale gold. Very decent fluffy lasting white swede. Fully expecting milky and sweet here. However, glad to be proved wrong. Pretty clean overall with semi sweet malt and plenty of bright citrus peach stone hoppage. Some dryness aids the drinkability. Pithy finish. It’s a bit of Axe Edge actually. Which obviously is a very good thing as Axe Edge doesn’t seem the same beer, lately. Maybe the beer buyer at Morrisons knows their shit?

Can picked up at the brewery. Clear gold. Slim white foam stays the course. Nose has clean crisp malts. Lots of sweet lemon. Some lime. Nice piny notes. Taste is dry-ish with bright lemony bitterness. Easy drinking affair with good body and plenty of flavour. Nice one.

Can via the online shop. Clear bronze gold. Slim sticky fairly leggy white foam. Thought on first sniff this might be oxidised somewhat, but actually it’s probably the caramalt. Pine and old English marmalade. Bit of wood polish. You get the idea. Taste is sweet and sticky with a huge bosh of pine resin bitterness. Sticky on the palate too although I’d guess sub 8%. Lingering piny sappy bitterness to finish. Dunno with this. It’s a good beer but I’m sure there’s a bit of oxidation going on. Be interested to see if anyone else ticks it.
