Apparently “12 pints are sold every minute”!

Review 
Burnt orange colour, white a foamy white head.

The aroma is very sweet and foremost hoppy. The taste is malty yet sweet with slightly grassy notes. Smooth and clean on the palate.

Quite refreshing with a very bitter finish.

Overall its OK. Somewhat a generic mass-market bitter.

Score:
Appearance: 12/20
Aroma: 9/20
Taste 10/30
Palate: 4/10
Overall: 8/20
Rating: 43/100
