330ml Can from Lidl (£0.99):
Bright but a very clear amber to light copper coloured beer, there's a centimetre tall head on top that's quite bubbly and white too but it halves in size quite quickly before eventually turning quite patchy. There a lot of orange initially on the nose which does seem a tiny bit artificial with some sweetness following on behind to give it a fizzy drink type smell to start. There's some background hops in there too but for the most part it's a very one-dimensional beer on the nose. The taste is much the same, with the orange flavours dominating before some bitter flavours start to come through as well as a few sugars and light hops but there's really not a whole lot to the beer and it seems quite basic. The body is a light and well-carbonated one that seems slightly overdone but there's really not too much I can say about this one save for a sharp, dry finish that comes with a lot of sweetness too.

Clear gold color with a small white head.
Orange aroma.
Orange taste. Doesn't really resemble a beer, more like a screwdriver.
Light-bodied.
Not very good.

L- Pale amber, clear, 3mm fine white head.
S- Yes it really does smell of orange, strange.
T- Thin, quite sharp>bitter from the hopping, and yes it tastes of orange, WTH, I ponder if they've added orange flavour to this beer...
F- Pale ale they say; well it tastes more like Tango [orangeade] to me, with a shot of vodka added. I do get an alcohol tang but at 6.0% that's no surprise.
O- If an alco-Tango appeals, this might suit you, but if you prefer something that has any characterships of beer I'd avoid. BB: 30/9/19. Bought from Lidl, for the first and last time.
I intentionally read nothing on the can until after after I'd written the above: Ingredients include 'Mandarina Bavaria hops' which a Google hit suggests is a 'tangerine machine' of a hop.
