Can. Color: Very hazy orange, white head. Aroma: Hoppy, fruity blend of melon, citrus, peach and grape. Taste: Fruity hop, notes of orange, melon, sweet white grapes and some (over)ripe peach. Smooth and quite dense malty body. On the sweetish side for me personally but a nice complexity. Just over medium body, just below average carbonation. Over moderate to medium sweet, moderate bitterness. Dry-ish bittery finish. Nice one.

Can from Hop Shop Aberdeen. Hazy deep golden body with a thin off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of peach, lemon sponge and peanut shell. Flavour of nectarine and kiwi. Medium body with a slick texture. Light fizz. Soft and very easy drinking for the ABV. Azvex are quietly becoming one of the UK’s best breweries.

440ml can bought as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Light to medium golden yellow, a touch of green. Incredibly hazy with a quickly dissipating white head. Lovely aroma with peach frozen yoghurt, some pink grapefruit, a little bit of pineapple. Sweet, creamy taste up front with peaches and apricot to the fore, quickly followed by an intense bitterness to the finish. Medium body with carbonation on the soft side. Very good.

Can. Had to smile when I saw the art on this can. I've been through the Drake passage and the sea was glassy calm! Hazy orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Fluffy pale malts, a nice level of creamy sweetness. Savoury skunk and cooling pine kick off the hop profile. Slightly ripe orangey citrus, little tangerine. Mild floral peach. Mild hop spice. A mild Nelson grape on the back end. Nice all round dipa, brings decent hop fruits but also shows the greener side of hops.
