Full-bodied with bags of tropical character. Expect guava, mango, passion fruit and lychee. These fruit flavours make way for mellow notes of honey with a smooth but bold finish.

440ml can. Pours very gold with a medium head. Aroma is mango, onion hop and a little alcohol. Taste is sweet, with mango, papaya and onion. Creamy mouthfeel. The fact you can get this in Tesco is just mad.

440ml Can from Tesco in Rickmansworth, Herts. A hazy golden/orange coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, orange, peach, tropical/stone fruit aroma and taste. Slightly thin but still very tasty and drinkable. One of the best beers I've had from Tesco in quite a while.

330ml can: BB 16th Jan 2021. Drank at home on St George's Day 2020, during the virus Lock In. Hazy orange body, full head. Fruit cocktail aroma and taste with an underlying sweetness within the tropical citrus flavours. Nice!

Creamy white head stayed on a hazy dark orange coloured still body. Pineapple & mango aroma. Full bodied, soft, creamy & smooth over the tongue with a lively clean back. Tropical, mango, pineapple, nectarine & cereal tastes. Loving this.....

Third, keg at Craft Asylum #2. Small sized white head remaining over a muddy grey-golden body. Spotty lacing. Ripe fruity aromas with notes of pine. Blended hop fruity taste of mid-sweet earthy malts, peaches and pine. Ends sweet fruity. Okay, a bit heavy to drink. (Leeds 30.06.2019).

Can. Hazy yellowish gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy and somewhat thin palate, fairly dry, decent superfine carbonation. Thin malts, mildly sweet. Minerally and slightly savoury citrus, tangy too. Modest pine. Little spicy orange - tangerine. Mild yellow grapefruit. Finishes thin and fairly dry with the hop spice starting to bite. A bit of an odd duck - fairly thin but still packing some hop punch. But also that savoury minerally thang going on.

Can from Drink? Hebden Bridge. Hazy-cloudy light amber with a small head. Has a strength to it, but its citrus lightly fizzed taste hides this well. Some bitterness, but again its sticky-sweet texture dulls this. Its aroma provides its best blast of fruit.

Can. Mitchell’s Wines, Sheffield. Fully hazy, slightly dirty, orange gold. Froth of off white head. Nose is nicely juicy, punchy, peachy and citrusy. An element of savoury in there. Touch of pine. Taste is sticky sweet with an earthy, savoury bitterness. A lot metallic, almost. Medium body. Oily on the palate. Fine carbonation. Short bitter finish. Smells pretty good, but it does trail off somewhat, thereafter.
