Can, 0.473l, courtesy of CanCrusher. Aroma of pungent passion fruit, citrus, pineapple and resin. Pours hazy pale golden color with large soapy white head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts juicy tropical fruity and citrusy, following is herbal, mouthfeel is smooth and mild spicy, while finish is dry and heavy bitter. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Not really deadly…

Milky yellow body, okay white foam. Soft juicy hops on the nose. Flavour is very sour hops and a bitter finish. A bit too bitter for me, but well made enough.

Tall can from the Legacy LRS. Pours a cloudy, a bit dirty pale golden with a white head. Aroma is tropical fruits with some slight dirty notes. Similar taste. Hm, this is fairly nice done. Good one. Pleasantly surprised by this Backcountry beer. Good option to Superflux or Boombox stuff.
