Second one from Aldi, an American style IPA. Now, I do like an American pale ale it must be said. 

Good head on it. Pours a very washed out amber with stubborn lacing with almost no carbonation. Lovely. 

I get apples on the nose with some sweetness. Could almost be toffee apple. I can even see the apples. Quite old. Musty. 

The flavours are a bit of a let down. There’s not great depth. No huge florals or fruits or spices. It’s just standard bitter in my book. Not sure this would make the Christmas supply box.
