330ml can from Beer52. Pours a semi-hazed gold with good lasting white head. Aroma has a cereal, grass with modest tropical and resin notes. Flavour wise its closer to an APA than an IPL at first with a decent punchy fruit and pine. However the finish is more grassy , semi-dry. Medium bodied, light chewiness. Very good for the style.

330ml can. Pours a dark gold/light amber with off-white top, decent retention. Notes of grapefruit, orange zest, sherbet, pine, malt. Medium bodied, average if lingering bitterness, semi-dry. Solid but very average for the style. If you are calling this 'Vengeance' it needs to be more punchy.

330ml can. Hazy orange-gold with white foamy head, excellent retention, good lacing. Aroma has fruity hops with pineapple and orange at the forefront with a light grassiness. Taste of tinned pineapple, peach, straw, herbs. A juicy hop burst with pepperiness near the finish. Medium bodied, pillowy, fine but lively carbonation. Very good.

330ml can. Pours a pale yellow-gold with thin white top. Aroma and taste has a grapefruit, lime, peach and herbal edge. Decent body for the strength, smooth but with light resin quality and moderate carbonation. Good.

500ml clear bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear dark gold/light amber with off-white head. Aroma is grassy with a sweet citrus, biscuit and a light skunk. Taste has plenty of bittering grassy hops with an oily generic citrus and biscuit malt. Light to medium bodied, oily, semi-drying and bitter. It does taste of cheaply brewed ingredients but packs a reasonable punch and flavour profile for £1.

339ml can. Near black pour with beige to tanned head, modest retention. Aroma of roasted malt, treacle, liquorice, blackcurrant - interesting. Taste is quite herbal and roasted with a drying mouthfeel. There is also some mild chocolate and blackcurrant. Slightly light in body but overall its a good stout..

330ml can. Hazy dark gold with wispy white top. Aroma of banana, clove, cereals. Taste of banana, clove, some tart fruity esters, good dose of bitterness. Light to mid bodied, slick yet a drying finish. Ok.

330ml can. Clear gold and brief white fizz. Another fairly basic lemon and cereal aroma although there is some floral hints towards the end. Taste is decent to be fair - some peppery grass with a slight lemon, cereal to bready malts, quite crisp, reasonable bitterness. Slick near medium body.
