500ml can into pint glass. Thanks to Ratebeer and Beer cartel. Yet another NEIPA, translucent orange/amber beer with a solid crown of white foam atop. Nice nose, lots of fruit (mango, orange most prominent). Lightly carbonated, smooth texture. Very drinkable. Finish is like an Orange Cream biscuit with some late lingering pepper. Really fresh, great beer.

Can. Almost opaque brownish orange with a 1/2 white head. Tropical fruit aroma is more floaty than punchy with an orange and lime touch to keep it from being too fruit punch-like. Soft texture with wheat and crackers, lowish carbonation. Lots of fruit with some grass and very light herbal notes coming in to joint pineapple astringency at the finish. The astringency is gentle, the bitterness gentler. Looking across at my review for their normal Hazy to find it's very similar (though the aroma popped more on that and the flavours seem better integrated here). I'm still not really sold on this sub style but this is very good. [Despite the reference to saying cheers to homegrown talent, none of M. Young, A. Young, B. Scott, B. Johnson or C. Walsh were born here.]

Can. Hazy yellow. Lychee and mango nose (but not huge). Juicy, but again, surprisingly restrained. Fine, but not exciting. Expecting a higher voltage effort.

From a 500ml can on 19/10/2019. Pours a hazy deep golden with a smallish white head which disappears quickly. Has a very light dank fruit aroma. Tastes of pineapple, mango and passion fruit with a gentle bitterness at the back. The palate is silky and the carbonation moderate to average. Not overly exciting but decent and tasty enough.
