Undated can drunk 1/17/26, as pictured.
Earth and mineral form a base for white peach, lychee, pear and mild tropical fruit skin. Oddly similar to All Puggle Everything, though with less floral/lychee character. Malts show up but don't dominate, adding rich honey and light biscuit/cracker on the end. No alcohol, flaw, resin noted.
At first I get some borderline overdone/astringent bitterness, following the rich, soft, but pretty well-attenuated malt. Some white grape/white wine, some resin, maybe a flash of alcohol. Something is thinning out the body here, but Marlowe's inherent maltiness keeps it pretty well-balanced. Whatever that big, peppery, alcoholic-like bitterness is, it's very unwanted and detracts from the whole picture.

Pours a hazy, orange-pineapple, with smallish head. Aroma is citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors follow. Soft mouthfeel, perhaps a bit on the thin side? Moderate to above levels of hop bitterness at the finish.
