500 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 5.0%. Thick papaya-coloured smoothie texture, no head. Aroma of papaya, tangerine, lactose, coconut and vanilla. Fruit smoothie mouthfeel. Flavour with the same elements, pleasant. Not as sour as expected.

500ml can. Opaque orange with no head. Aroma of mandarin and papaya, I don't get any coconut. Taste is as described, creamy coconut, sharp mandarin, sweet papaya, they all work well together, not really any sourness, but not overly sweet either. Very thick, fluffy airy texture. Very good, actually.
An expectedly outrageous non-beer given the collab breweries involved. Curious lactose addition when neither of those are known for using it. Totally unnecessary with the absurd amount of fruit matter already in it. But damn it's tasty stuff.
