500ml bottle from Morrison's Supermarket, Scotland (£1):
This one wasn't too bad if I'm honest, it was certainly better than I'd been expecting after I'd established that it was a collaborative beer that was brewed completely by Shepherd Neame for the UK market. Upon discovering this I had been expecting quite a bland & ordinary golden ale but thankfully it was a nice & semi-interesting one with a pleasant taste kicked off by some nice earthy hops & floral flavours alongside a good helping of citrus. It was by no means a classic & doesn't really compare to any of the other Samuel Adams beers that I've tried to this point but taken on its own merits, it was an enjoyable & quite refreshing beer that is well worth picking up while it remains on special offer in UK supermarket.

Pale straw colour. Very bubbly.
Freshly cut barley with citrus notes.
The flavour is a bit of a let down. Any American hops are overwhelmed by the standard SN ones.
Still quite a refreshing beer.
Probably best served cold on a hot summer's day.
