Crisp & light in bitterness with aromas of passionfruit & honeydew, light body, but not at the expense of hop character. To be enjoyed now and long after the sun’s gone down.

(Can) Pours clear pale gold with small white head. Pleasant aroma of citrus with hints of pine. Light bodied with bright carbonation. Pleasant refreshing taste although rather thin. There’s some citrus, some notes of breast malt, a bit of hoppy bitterness through the palate. It’s ok, perfectly drinkable but not interesting.
