2.5 Bottle at home bargains for the pricely sum of 69p.... It pours clear golden - amber with a medium white head. The aroma is pretty subdued, bready, grainy, biscuit, grass and a touch of lemon. The taste is crisp, quite clean, toasty grain, lemon - lime, metallic and grass with a drying finish. Light - medium body and average. Fairly bland, but not bad per se.

2.9 Golden colour with white foam. Aroma is mostly malt. Taste is light, a bit watery but works okay on a hot day.

2.5 33 cl bottle poured in to a Tulip. Hazy amber-golden colour with a thin white head. Fruity aroma with citrus fruits, grasses, some cardboard and a lightly toasted note. Taste is bitter. Medium body with a creamy texture and a soft carbonation. Finishes dry and bitter with vague citrus fruits. More cardboard. Nothing special. Lacks a decent hopping.

2.0 33cl Bottle. Apperance: A deep goldenbody, with a small and unstable head,, which doesn’t last long. and doesn’t leave much lacing. Aroma:Pears, grass, lighht malts. Taste: very thin watery, pear and light malts. Lacks bitterness, luckilly not too sweet. Light body, average carbonation. Way to thin and watery.

2.8 Bottle from Albert Heijn in Gorinchem, The Netherlands. The beer is deep golden to amber colored and a small and unstable head, with oke carbonation. The aroma is malty and fruity, with notes of caramel, peaches, candy, flowers and spices. The taste is light to medium bodied and light sweet with notes of caramel and candy peaches and changes into a light bitterness with spices and hops. The finish is bitter and light dry and watery.

2.5 Bottle. Pours golden with a mediumsized white head. Aroma is peachy with malts. Taste is thin,watery with fruits and fresh. Short finish. Medium carbonation.

2.6 A golden beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has malts, sweet perries. Taste has perries, malts, mild bitterness. Quite light bodied. Strong perries, weird.

2.4 Malty taste with herbs and banana. Not much bitterness, just a short tinge. A kind of stale taste to it and I’m sorry to say, nothing really special!

3.0 Clear deep golden color with a fine off white head. Good lacing. Ok intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a fine carbonation level. Tad sweet compared to the bitterness. Malty, fruity and citric hoppy flavor. Decent easy drinkable beer. [Bottle from Fjord Line Strömstad - Sandefjord]

2.1 330ml bottle. Pours clear amber with no head. Aroma is raspberry, malt. Taste is fruity, slightly sweet, next to no bitterness. This would pass as a fruit beer. Not an APA, however.

2.5 29/XII/16 - 33cl bottle from local AH supermarket @ Delft - BB: 9/II/17 (2016-1507) Thanks to Thomas for sharing the bottle! Clear orange beer, small aery white head, unstable, dissipates quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: very malty, sweet, caramel, some banana. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet, bit fruity, pretty medicinal bitterness, grains. Aftertaste: some green banana, malty, grains, unpleasant bitterness, somewhat fruity.

2.7 A good APA to serve with simple food. I enjoyed this with grilled halloumi and tomato skewers, where the rich, salty cheese brought a whole basket of tropical fruit out in the beer’s aroma and flavour. Once the food was finished, however, the beer lacked a lot of character and was slightly disappointing.

2.6 Bottle at home. Clear yellow with a white head. Aroma light malty (bread, caramel) and hoppy (citrusy). Flavor light to medium sweet and bitter. Light body.

3.1 Bottle, 33 cl, Nag’s Head, London (shared with my wife). Overall fruity, although not too sweet, rather pleasant. Almost no bitterness.

2.4 33cl bottle. Pours clear dark golden colour with a mid-sized most good lasting off-white head. Aroma of citrus, red malt, mild bitter hops. Taste of grainy red malt, mild citrus hops, nothing special.

1.9 Light floral fragrance. Floral and watery flavor. Slightly bitter occupying the upper part of the mouth briefly. Watery but drinkable. Kung av öl @ Facebook for more pictures and ratings.

3.1 Bottle at Olutexpo 2016. Pours light golden with medium white head. Aroma is peach with pilsner malt. Taste is bit thin but fruity and fresh. Short finish. Medium carbonation. Okay.

2.5 Quite thin in the taste. No aroma. Ok for thirst, but no more than that. Try again.

2.4 Bottle. Golden pour. Aroma of pils malt and sweet grain. Taste of sweet malt, mild fruity hop and candy peach. More pils than apa.

2.4 Bottle, 23 Wine and Whiskey, Leicester. Golden with a white head. Light toffee. Cardboard. Stewed apple. Some acidity. Vegetable fat. Weak hop finish. Not great

2.1 Pours gold with white head. Aroma is malt and hay, no sign of hops. Flavour is bread, card board and kind of sweet.

2.8 Along with Yves at his home golden blonde colored body with a white head and with a spicy fruity malt hops aroma a spicy fruity malt hops bitter taste with a slight bitter finish

2.6 Shared with wim at my home. Clear goldblond colored beer with small white head and only few carbonation visible. Rather fruited aroma. Full sparkling palate. Finish is sweet fruited neutral.

3.1 Bottle at Albert Heijn, Warmond. Poured a clear medium amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is malt, floral hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light grainy watery, light fruit, light hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

3.1 Taste on 01.08.2016 @ home, bottle 33 cl. from AH. Clear darkgolden color, with a medium white head. Aroma: malts, sweet, some fruit notes, little floral hops. Medium body. Taste: sweet, fruits, little hops.

2.0 Fast gone, just off-white head over big bubbled, very lively carbonated orange-golden beer. Caramel, watery... and near anything else. Benzene? Lightly bitterish - and watery. Bit of parsley, searching well. Utterly light. Had even lighter British ales with so much more flavour. This is but a sorry excuse for an ale.
