Can from lowcostbeer.com. Hazy orange with small white top. Juicy aroma orange and tropical fruit salad, strawberry does come through, malts quite notable. Taste is quite grainy and malt focused at first but then a fruity hop burst does come through, orange, mango and kiwi most notable. Green onion in the finish. Near medium bodied, refreshing, semi-dry. Decent.

Can, bb 1/24. Nearly opaque yellowish orange with a white head. 3+ Aroma of a melange of fruit - pear, berries, old kiwi fruit - grain, nettles. A bit haphazard. And so is the taste - lots of mainly fruity hops but not arrayed to any great effect. Slightly astringent, low bitterness. On special so perhaps past its best.

Draft at Orh Gao Taproom, Singapore. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt and tropical citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a fresh, crisp, juicy mango passionfruit, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

[44cl can from Lowcostbeer.] A hazy pale amber pour with a tight white head; gentle tropical fruit aroma; smooth and fruity in the mouth with grapes, mango, pineapple and lemon standing out; then a sharp lemony finish. A solid, satisfying, NEIPA.
