Showing off a refreshing citrus acidity and a hint of saline smoothness, lifted mango notes and passionfruit pop from the glass. Unfined and unfiltered, THE PUNCH pours slightly hazy in the glass with a dark lemon colour.

375ml can into shaker. Looks like unfiltered pineapple juice, smells like ripe mangoes. Touch of umami. Light in body and lightly salty. Finish is long and evolving. Starts off clean and fruity then yeasty, spicy, peppery, salty notes reveal themselves. You could slam this but it's more fun to allow the salted durian experience to take over your taste buds. Two beers in one, Fruity Quaffer or Salty Contemplative Beverage.

Can on yet another hot night after summer should be gone. Opaque yellow with less than a coat of white head. Looks like a fruit juice.Smells strongly of stinky overripe mango, funky wheat notes behind. You’d want to be keener on mangoes than I am. But it sits in the mix much more upon a sip. Light bodied with mango, lemons and their blossoms, some passionfruit. Wheaty tang only just nudges towards sour and the salt is just enough to register right at the end. Nicely done. Really refreshing.
