440ml can from Benny’s Place, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a murky dark golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy, stone fruits, aromatic. The flavour is over moderate bitter, with a fresh, smooth, rich, herbal, warm boozy alcohol bitter palate. Over medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Super nice, but I’m not entirely sure it’s worth all the hype.

Keg at Liquid Dreams 26 - Haxy darker orange. Thick frothy foamy white head. Aroma has stone fruit and hoppy bitterness with this weird meat flavoured crisps element I cannot place. Flavourwise it's initially bitter before more pulpy fruit elements come through. Underlying chewy malts. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Pithy. Soft-average carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Dece. Worth the hype? Dunno.

Murky dark orange colour, small white head. Vinegummy tropical fruity nose. Medium-bodied. Juicy, tropical fruity flavour with tangerine and grapefruit. Alright, similar to previous ones.

Annual Putty rate... 9th iteration, thanks to Neal for the can, procured from their webshop I believe.
440ml can. Murky almost opaque golden with a white head. Aroma of fresh mango, grapefruit, pineapple, peach, herbal. Taste is the same, juicy fresh mango and pineapple, grapefruit, peach, herbal and dank with a hint of savoury, hop bitterness to finish. Medium-full bodied. Excellent.

Even if it's not the best ever Putty I think this year's might be closest to the original in terms of taste when I compare to my old notes. Certainly got a nice nostalgia hit drinking this one. Wonderful stuff.

Creamy white head on a milky golden coloured body.
Green hops, dank & grapefruit aroma.
Medium bodied, sparkling on the tongue with a smooth back.
Grapefruit, citrus pith, lime, dank & cereal tastes with an extremely bitterly hopped finish.
Hops to the limit.

Smooth, sweetish and slightly juicy with some grassy and herbal notes, pine, grass and tropical fruitiness, hints of bitterness. Still tasty.
