Hazy deep golden in color with a white head. Aroma is of sweet bready malt and fruit. Sweet and fruity oh so dreamy. Mildly hopped, quite sweet from start to finish. Me think me have cavity now.

Bottle (375ml). Poured lively bubbly hazy orange with a smallish foamy whitish head. Aroma of mild citrusy malt, somewhat yeasty. Taste is pleasant but too mild - faintly orange-juice malt, a touch of rye grain, very mild/stale hops, orange pekoe tea. Mouthfeel juicy and a wee bit acidic, somewhat watery. Overall very pleasant and easy to drink but the most unmemorable Sam Smith brew I’ve had yet.

Clear, golden amber appearance with a small white head. Interesting aroma: musty, bready, a hint of fruit, a bit off, but not skunked. Taste was somewhat fruity up front, slightly metallic, with a spicy, herbal, dry finish.

Can’t quite put my finger on this one. Slight hop bite, with a sort of sour fruit and metallic finish. Just not a lot going on with this one.

Pours a gorgeous dark copper color with a frothy head. ... Aroma lightly sweet ... Nose is hoppy and finish is dry. But midway, you’ll detect a dash of fruitiness. ... Very crisp, drinkable stuff. A nice little ale.

Whatever. Looks good, smells good, but the taste is flat. Malt sweet and sour/bitter at the same time. Tastes out of balance. Too expensive for the weak payoff.

Pours gorgeous. Orange-amber, nice head. looks delicious! Smells a bit earthy... with some decent malts in there. Flavor is plain, yet refreshing. Finishes bitter. A nice brew overall.
