Can shared in London - cheers to WW. Pours murky gold with a foamy white head. Lots of meaty hops, juicy tropical fruits, low bitterness, tangerine, papaya. Full bodied with fine carbonation. Super juicy finish, light boozy warmth, more bright tropical fruits. Excellent.

Can. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth and semi dry palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Sweetish malts, thin dry malt cream still provides an overall good malt base. Smooth ripe mango and orange. Light pine. Modest hop spice. A touch of dankness on the finish. Nice enough but Cloudwater continue to frustrate. Where is the hop brightness and zing?

Can at home. Pours murky gold with a decent white cap. Aroma is juicy mango, tangerines and passion fruit with just a little hop dankness in there. Taste is plenty of bitter peppery hop, a little booze burn giving way to juicy mango, a little passion fruit and tangerines leaving a sweetness tempered with bitter hop. Quite spiky palate from the hops. Nice
