The colour was pale golden yellow, with quite a substantial head. There was strong orange fruit and spicy cinnamon aroma. THe taste was light and crisp, with citrus orange and malt, and some moderate spicy flavours. There was light hoppy bitterness, and a soft short finish. This was an unusual crisp fresh fruity style, and it was quite pleasant.

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 of this particular beer, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

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