Feb 25, 2006 50cl bottle from Sainsbury’s. Large frothy head which dissapates quickly. Orange. Aroma difficult to describe, yeasty and chemically but better once it’s in the mouth. Oily and fizzy in the palate with a sweet but acidic flavour. Disappointing.

Feb 5, 2006 Pours a golden orange with a bubbly white head. Sweet. $4.99 for a 25 oz. bottle. Not cheap given the slighly disappointing taste. Taste is too simplistic - thin even with no body to speak of. Wouldn’t buy again.

Jan 14, 2006 Amber colour with a bubbly off-white head. Curious chemical aroma suggestive of burning plastic. This rather spoiled the taste for me. Seemed like a decent enough pint with sweet malts and yeast.

Oct 8, 2005 Forgot to rate this after having it over a year ago. This beer wasn’t cheap at $5 for a pint bottle. It was terrible. Fizzy, slightly bitter, even acidic. Not the worst cost to taste ratio, but this one might make the top 10.

Sep 13, 2005 [bottle from sainsburys] aroma is fruity and has a slight elderflower note. Body is a little thin and a little bitterness in the finish.

Sep 8, 2005 Drinkable, but nothing special. Orange with an initially thick head that quickly transforms into clumps of foam floating on the drink, it has a light caramel malt aroma somewhat bolstered by a Wheaties scent. Light bodied, the flavor delivers a little light fruitiness, yeast, malt, and a mildly bitter hopping. The finish is a slight citric bitterness. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.beergeek.biz/> BeerGeek.biz

Sep 8, 2005 Updated: Sep 29, 2006Sep 06 BCA. Mid amber. Caramel, malt and earthy hops. Bland and thin with an over sparkling mouthfeel. Perhaps a bit generous last time. 2.3
Sep 05 BCA. Upon opening lots of froth gushed forth so I left it for an hour to die down. Didn’t appear to be an infection (no off flavours) just bottled too early? Fruity hop with a herbal musty undertone contrast quite well with sweet biscuity malts. The whole is unfortunately spoiled by young yeasty flavours and a slight tea like astringency in the finish. I’d be quite interested to try this in the cask. 2.4
