440ml can. Murky, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, dense, creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Dank, resinous and fruity, minimally herbal and citrusy as well as floral, hoppy aroma, oaty and slightly wheaty malty background, notes of weed, hints of yellow stone fruit, white grapes, lime and lemon peel, overtones, whiffs of nettle and petals. Taste is fruity, minimally herbal-grassy and floral hoppy, oaty and minimally wheaty malty basis with low residual sweetness, rather unspecific "core" fruitiness in a spectrum between orange, mirabelle, pineapple, pear and white grapes, with subtle allusions to lemon, honey, melon, nettle, lemon balm, sweet-ish as well as tart-ish fruit acidic aspects throughout, weak floral overtones.
Widely creamy, minimally watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy palate, fine, dense, soft, creamy carbonation.
Well crafted, excellent mouthfeel, very homogeneous, harmonious and seemingly light, perfectly hidden alcohol - great!

Smooth, dankish, juicy tropical fruity, herbal hoppy and piney with loads of floral notes, hints of bitterness. Quite tasty and intensely hoppy
