473ml can. (5.3% ABV) Pours a hazy pale straw colour with a large, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that laces. Aroma of lime, juniper, soap and faint wheat malt hiding in the background. Sweet flavour of wheat malt, lime, juniper, soap and light gin in a dry finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Refreshing and crushable, but more of a cocktail than a beer. Not for me.

The aroma is soft lime and botanicals, has great foam on a clear yellow body. Flavour is bright lime and good botanical notes, very tropical cocktail like though also brings back memories of the dark days when I drank cleaning products for fun. Mouthfeel is crisp and smooth. Nice and well made.

Draught at the brewery. Hazy and quite pale. Smells very limey. On the palate, lots of lime and some citric tartness. Light but refreshing out here in the hot sun, so in the right context this works. Pretty sure I wouldn't like it as much in any other context, though.

Tap into a shot taster showing well filtered pale straw with half a finger of clean white foam. The nose shows light lime and bare hints of malt. The palate is well carbonated and light bodied. Lime forward while clean and refreshing and a very mild vegetal bitterness on the finish. Clean and refreshing throughout, but a lower ABV makes it very attractive.

Tap at the Shinshu Craft Beer Matsuri, 2018. Big lime nose, lots of gin, juniper. Tastes like a gin lime cocktail and not much like a beer at all, but tasty stuff.

On tap at Fuggles & Warlock, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of juniper berries upfront, followed by lime and light grass. Flavour is a lime bomb, with nearly nothing else besides lime. Maybe some light juniper. Quite uninspired and too lime-dominated for my liking.

Draught at the brewery, Summer Party, as "Gin and Lime Pilsner"
Cloudy blond color with greenish hue. Refreshing but a bit soapy, citrusy, reminds me of some tropical asian drink, dry in the finish. More lime than gin here.
