Can sourced from Drikbeer and drunk at home (20/11/2022) - (October 2022 / Batch 7 version) murky golden yellow with a white head. Thick creamy oat laden malty and a big hop soup here with a tropical and citrus fruit malaise, green young dank hoppy, dense oat laden body and mouthfeel, spring onion, grassy and dank hoppy finish. Good but not up to usual Root/branch level expectations

16oz can pours a starchy yellow, ring of white head. Nose is nice, lemon and lime, pineapple curd, vanilla, oats, green melon. Flavor leads with the vanilla, oats, Chai, key lime pie, passionfruit curd. It's a touch sweet, otherwise full bodied and starchy.

Draught @ Ginger Man. Extremely hazy dull yellow with almost non-existent frothy whitish head, citrus aroma, medium carbonation, medium bitter lemon peel taste, thin body, long medium bitter finish with faint alcohol aftertaste. Nice brew, wish I could see the illustration as well.

Mekelberg's, Brooklyn tap: pours hazy with a white head. Aroma is large amount of grapefruit and citrusyness in general. Lightly bitter and rather fruity. typical.
