Can picked up from Beerdome, webshop Grootegast, Netherlands, and consumed at home Sunday 21st February 2021 listening to Idles - Ultra Mono and cooking Mountain Meatballs. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Hoppy as you'd expect but it's streaky with a lovely juiciness, tropical and herbal touches. Good but getting fed up with the style again.

Can. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Airy pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. Sabro does what Sabro does and brings and brings that lovely pineapple vibe, slightly ripe. Some supporting mellow citrus underneath. Soft pine rides alongside and there is a pinch of hop spice in the light and semi dry finish. Good stuff, goes down very easy.

Can sourced from Kihoskh Webshop and shared at home (25/09/2020) - hazed up golden pour with a white head. Medium sweet fruity with prominent sabro forward fruity action, that nice pina colada vibe with pineapple and coconut with some citrus fruity grapefruit in support, sweet malts, medium body, light piney bitter hoppy close. Good stuff.
