Hazy orange with thin white head. Aroma of juicy mango, passionfruit and wheat, light funkiness. Taste again is very juicy, tangy and sweet but there is a good hoppy zesty bitterness and spice in the finish to balance. Smooth medium to full body. Very good - its nice to have a flavoured lactose beer with some decent hopping to compliment.

Can ordered from the brewery. The aroma is all about the mango and passion fruit. A spicy nip. Hazy orange juice orange. Foamy translucent white head soon almost entirely disappears. The flavour manages to balance the fruit and spice. Fruity but with a Habanero bite throughout... bitterness and sourness. Underlying resin. Although it's the chili that lasts. Medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long astringent finish. Enjoyable as long as you don't mind the chili.

Can from Deconinck. Hazy bright yellow, thin, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of passionfruit flesh, mango, pineapple, white pepper, yellow bell pepper, yoghurt, peach. Taste has sweetish pineapple & peach, sourish passionfruit & citrus zest, bit spicy over creamy & doughy maltiness. Floral & peppery hoppy finish, soft chili burn toned down by tropical fruits and sourish zest. Medium body, slick texture, average carbonation. Definitely fruit-fueled; the lactose and habanero clash a bit though.
