Can via BD Online. It pours hazy bright golden - orange with a small white head. The aroma is toasty grains, lactose, mango cheesecake, cereal, hay, orange creamsicle and passion fruit. The taste is dry, crisp, tart, sour candy, sherbet, lactic, natural yoghurt, mango, passion fruit, cheesecake, orange creamsicle and a touch of pickle with a dry finish. Light to medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Not bad, but lacks a bit of cohesion.

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned in 6/2018. Pours moderately hazy golden amber color with a 1 finger fairly dense and rocky white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big juicy/lightly tart/tangy passion fruit, mango, fruit skin, lemon, pear, green apple, melon, white grape, hay, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, biscuit, light lacto/Brett funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/light acidic yeast, fruit, lactose, and pale/wheat malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big juicy/lightly tart/tangy passion fruit, mango, fruit skin, lemon, pear, green apple, melon, white grape, hay, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, biscuit, light lacto/Brett funk, and yeast earthiness. Mild fruity/lactic tartness and fruit tang on the finish. Lingering notes of juicy passion fruit, mango, fruit skin, lemon, pear, green apple, melon, white grape, hay, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, biscuit, light lacto/Brett funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance fruity/light acidic yeast, fruit, lactose, and pale/wheat malt flavors; with an awesome malt/tartness and tangy fruit balance; and zero cloying/puckering flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering tartness/tangy fruit. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/silky/grainy, and lightly acidic/tangy mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.5%. Overall this is an delicious fruited milkshake sour. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance fruity/light acidic yeast, fruit, lactose, and pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the mildly acidic/tangy finish. Very flavorful for the low ABV. Nicely juicy fruits, balanced milkshake-like sweetness; and solid Brett/lacto complexity. A very enjoyable offering. Did not like this quite much as the others, but pretty close. They are all very similar.
