Can via Simon J. it pours cloudy golden - orange with a medium fluffy white head. The aroma is ripe, juicy, mango, peach, papaya, lychee, watermelon, orange chewits, tangerine, pink grapefruit and marmalade. The taste is firmly dry, pleasing snappy bitterness, green, weedy, clean, pithy, zesty, bitter orange, tangerine, grapefruit, mango & lime, peach, candied fruits, floury bread, brioche, orange blossom, fairly hearty and a lick of booze with a juicy finale. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Lovely hop juice.

A4 draught, 2nd from left, 7/23/26.
Huge pear and melon with some white grape and no herb. Soft, supple, pale malts easily balance. Very zesty on the end with a huge, playful fruitiness. Maybe lychee is a better descriptor here.
Good bitterness up front with a big pear-lychee flavor and soft, supple malts with a touch of cracker, drying out on the finish. Excellent balance and good intensity of flavor. Slightly above average bitterness works well to balance the round fruitiness.
