Canned in Australia. Is it still a Dormunder lager if it's got melon juice concentrate? (no). Somewhat cloudy gold with a white head that settles to a cm or so. Aroma of crackers, melon, herbal citrus. Sweet with melon and some breadcrust as well as crackers; then citrus and some herbal notes sharpen it up towards the bitter enough end.

440ml can into pint glass. Thanks to Beer Cartel and Ratebeer. Golden amber beer, slight haze. Large frothy white head, high fine carbonation. Wonderful fruity mango smell. Crisp and bitter with a light effervescence. Finish is drying with lots of melon but also some citrus. Really really good, delicious.

Can from May #ratebeersupertasters. I confess, I'm not a melon fan. And this is like a glass of fizzy melon juice. It's well enough executed but not my cup of tea.
