440 ml can, from Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 4.5%. Medium hazy yellow colour, moderate white head. Distinct aroma of mango, pineapple, papaya and guava, also notes of spruce. The flavour has notes of citrus and said tropical fruits, sprucetips and pine needles in the finish, moderate bitterness. Very pleasant to drink.

Can, at Christianssand Brygghus. It's an unclear one, yellow-orange in color, with a finger thick white head. Some lacing. The aroma is very grapefruity and piney, with some generic citrus and a faint malty hint. Notes of green grapes and melon. It's medium bodied and quite dry on the palate, with a pleasant carbonation and a good bitterness. Mostly piney and grapefruity flavor too, with some hop bag notes and a very light hop burn. Some melon and grass hints, and a very light maltyness. Lasting dry, bitter and fruity finish. A refreshing and delicious one. 220810

Hand-pulled pint on 11th June 2022; Bookshop Alehouse, Southampton. Poured a cloudy pale body (yellow-ish), white head. Yip, it's hop forward all right, citrus leanings throughout.

440ml can. Poured a hazy light yellow straw colour with a lasting frothy white head and lots of bubbles. The aroma is grainy malt, fake sugar and citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate to light bitter and sweet, with a light, watery, crisp, light tropical citrus, mineral, light hop bitter palate. Light to medium bodied with lively carbonation.

Can from the Brewhouse & Kitchen, Islington. Yellow gold, hazy with a big loose white head. Smells of grapefruit, candied citrus peel, lemon balm. Well-balanced taste: its got some sweetness but isn't a 'sweet' beer,and there's noticeable hop kickback in the finish. Very heavy carbonation. Its tempting to label it as competent as opposed to mind-blowing,bit it sits comfortably between the two. I could drink a few of these.

Can from the brewery online shop. Appearance - cloudy yellow, one inch snow white head. Nose - orange, then dank mango and melon. Taste - mango skin, fresh orange and a resin note. Palate - light to medium bodied. Tangy, lightly bitter finish. Overall - good but resin note more than preferred.

(Can) Pours cloudy golden with white head. Good aroma of tropical fruit and citrus with notes of pepper and onion. Full bodied with excellent carbonation, both smooth and bright. Taste unusual with a significant evolution from a tangy fruity start to a bitter and peppery finish. The malt is well down in the mix with little apparent sweetness. Plenty of hops. Very drinkable, if just a little unusual.
