568ml can of 'Kona Light' on the balcony of our stateroom while sailing from Hawaii to Mexico in December 2022. Obtained from an ABC store and smuggled on board! Clear and clean golden body, white topping. Citrus like aroma and mini-taste, tropical fruitiness even. Light feel to the body and taste. OK for a hot day.

355ml bottle [as Kona Light]. Clear, orangey, golden colour with small, frothy, fading, white head. Minimally strawy, pale malty and fruity, hoppy aroma, whiffs of mango. Taste is dry, pale malty, slightly citrusy and tropical fruity hoppy, a touch of lemon and mango; mineral finish. Watery texture, dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation. Light, anaemic, rather expressionless - so-so.

Clear pale yellow colour, small white head. Grainy aroma with light fruityness, mango? Maybe. Light-bodied. Light fruit, grass and grain in the flavour. Pale malty, crisp, watery, easy.

12 ounce bottle from Woodman's Appleton, 2/28/20. Clear gold, thin fizzy head, poor retention. Aroma of lime and dirty socks. Taste is pale malt, lime, and that sweaty sock thing. Thin. Weird. Not good.
