500ml can. Crystal clear, yellow-ish, golden colour with average, forthy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy and slightly (tropical) fruity, slightly piney, hoppy aroma, sweet-ish, pale malty background, notes of mango, orange, pineapple, some yellow stone fruit, a touch of blueberry, whiffs of honey; slight jelly bear character overall. Taste is bitter, citrusy and piney, slightly tropical fruity hoppy, pale malty backbone with some residual sweetness, notes of mango, orange, pineapple, yellow stone fruit, some lemon, a touch of lime.
Oily texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy, simultaneously slightly dry palate, fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation.
Hopped like a NEIPA, therefore nice nose, but the bitterness doesn't really match with the (especially) tropical fruity flavours in taste, a lack of citrusy flavours as well, considering the use of Amarillo and Citra; slightly disharmonious therefore - not fully convincing.
