Cruzcampo by Heineken UK positive
Rated on 2023-11-11 by BeerDorkNik at Tesco
Quality: 60, Enjoyability: 61, Overall: 60.5
Deep gold. Large head on pour, with little surface retention but good solid lacing. Jammy, doughy aroma. Oddly jammy taste and after. A really nice Lager from Heineken, I'm confused...
Wingman Tropical Storm by BrewDog positive

Quality: 54.5, Enjoyability: 53.5, Overall: 54
Hazy brass. Large head on pour, OK surface retention with loose layering and little lacing between. Initial tropical Calpol aroma, pithier under. Orangey, toffee coin, taste and after. Bit viscous, some peppery effervescence. Surprisingly OK for the Wingman range…
Fruit Burst by BrewDog positive
Rated on 2026-04-09 by BeerDorkNik at Home Bargains, Edge Lane
Quality: 51.5, Enjoyability: 52, Overall: 51.75
Hazy gold. Extremely large foam head on pour, dispersing. Gummy fruit sweeties aroma, bit artificial, bit urinal cake hop. Fruity hop taste, dryer similar after. Soft effervescence, bit silky. Exceeded expectations, much better than the aroma would suggest.
