zacgillbanks (7949) - Tyne & Wear, ENGLAND - JAN 1, 2022
UPDATED: JAN 1, 2022 500ml Bottles from B&M, Morrisons etc. 2022, 2012, 2011, 2008, 2005. Amber coloured with a thick white head of foam. It has slight soapy and earthy flavour with toffee notes and a sulphur and bitter-sweet finish. Ok.

FACambridge (1122) - Chelmsford, Essex, ENGLAND - DEC 30, 2021
UPDATED: DEC 31, 2021 Aroma : Very light lime citrus, miniscule touch of caramel malt. Taste : Thin body, ultra watery texture. Lighest of light fruity limey citric bitterness throughout. As per smell just a miniscule amount of caramel malt detectable. Quite some achievement to make this even blander than the boring old original 5% version!

edward78 (838) - West Wickham, Kent, ENGLAND - JUL 17, 2021
UPDATED: JUL 17, 2021 Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear copper/bronze colour with a thinnish throthy white head. Subtle notes of floral, citrus and honey. Taste has more of the notes from the aroma, added fruit salad sweets and an earthy hop on the finish. Medium body, low carbonation and very smooth oily mouthfeel. Quite nice.

honestbeerbloke (9) - - MAY 26, 2021 does not count
UPDATED: MAY 26, 2021 Aroma of sports bag, with undertone of 'Nan'. Tastes un-fruity with an array of flavours, unable to pinpoint. Quite ok 👌🏽

2.7
Kevnic2008 (14040) - Baden-Baden, GERMANY - JAN 2, 2021
UPDATED: JAN 2, 2021 Pours a hazy golden color with thin white head that stays a while. Citrus aroma, flavor is a bit watery, some fruity elements. Slightly bitter aftertaste. Drinkable, but not exactly outstanding.

LagerGuide122 (803) - - NOV 15, 2020
UPDATED: NOV 15, 2020 500ml bottle brewed in England at 4.2%. Golden orange-amber, clear, with a neat fluffy head, fair duration. Tangerine hops and white bread malt. Interestingly fruity, banana notes, light tangerine, fairly robust caramel and white bread malt aroma. Does what it says on the label, but no great shakes. Somewhat unusual flavour distinguishes it but may also put people off. Definitely worth a try for fans of sweet fruity blondes, and even fans of ale as well! For me, however, bordering on the sickly side, even with a little balancing tang. Not bad, but not for me.

3.2
IPAGuide128 (341) - - SEP 7, 2020
UPDATED: SEP 7, 2020 Malt aroma with a hint of banana. Quite sweet, again with some nana at the back end. Gently bitter.

3.7
weirdbeered (312) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - SEP 5, 2020
UPDATED: SEP 5, 2020 Slightly cloudy, dark side of amber. Decent off white head. Faint aroma of hops and malt. Rich taste of roasted malt, some sweetness, raisin, caramel and biscuit. Sweet finish. Straightforward, pleasant ale.
