The colour was medium amber with a strong orange-red tint, and it had a moderate head. There was a crisp hoppy citrus aroma. The taste had yeasty crisp hops and some malt balance, with citrus fruit and smokey wood flavours. It was crisp and hoppy, with quite complex flavours.

Note 1 I am not really a beer expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these beers. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2 You may not agree with my evaluation of these beers as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on freshness and intense characteristic flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
