16 oz can. Aroma has soft cantaloupe, mild citrus, bready malt. Flavor follows with hints of mango and I guess you could say watermelon. Shows a very little bit of herb bitterness after the sip. Good body and texture. Pretty well balanced. It’s a nice Brew.

The aromas are melons, berries and citrus. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, good balance between sweet, bitter and carbonation. Good body and finish follows flavors. Very drinkable.

473ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish golden colour with average to huge, fluffy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Grassy, piney and fruity, hoppy aroma, notes of pineapple, some fresh hay, melon, overripe melon, hints of lemon, candied lemon, mandarine, slightly spicy-grainy, malty background. Taste is somehow condensed, fruity hoppy, notes of melon, lemon, lemongrass, a touch of candied lemon, tinned fruit, some oaty and wheaty malty sweetness, traces of alcohol, minimally papery interludes of spelt. Creamy-watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally cloying palate, medium to fine, soft carbonation. A tad disharmonious, minimally digressive fruit flavours - not the high point of this style.
