Can sourced from Kihoskh, Copenhagen, shared at home with the Mrs - light orange hazy pour with a white head. Sweet juicy fruity with notes of grapefruit and tangerine, some mango, some light bitter citrus rind, medium body, solid hoppy close. Goes down a treat.

440ml can @ Station. Pours murky yellow, modest white head. Aroma is oniony, herbal with some stonefruit. Taste is soft, milky, vegetal, herbal, with white grape, melon, citrus. The vegetal notes are a bit off-putting but it generally rounds off to something palatable.

Can from Cork & Cask. Milky golden body with a thin white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of Jelly Babies, tangerine and mango pulp. Flavour of orange jelly, sherbet and mango. Medium body with a smooth, frothy mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Sweet and delicious. Really good.

Can. Archer Road Beer Stop, Sheffield. Michael Myers freaks me out, btw. Pale, straw gold. Thick as a bag. Film and ring of, sticky, white head. Nose has fusty citrus. Ripe lemon. Green hop leaf. It has that cryo hop, mineraly thing going on. Taste has a fleeting sweetness, but is mostly citrus rind bitterness. Light twang in there. Medium body. A little oily and flabby, perhaps. Soft carbonation. Lingering citrus bitterness to finish. Ok. Not up with some of this brewerโs other recent offerings.

Keg at IMBC. It pours crazy cloudy yellow with a small white head. The aroma is green, floury bread, ripe orange, kuicy kumquat, tangerine, persimmon and squash. The taste is dry, clean, bright, floury bread, green, piney, dank, pithy citrurs, orange peel, tangerine, chalk and a kick of alcohol with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Fresh.
