Can at Tasting session; hazy golden yellow pour with a thin white head, aroma has mango and passion fruit, taste has rhubarb and custard sweets, some passion fruit, slight sour finish, great.
Tastes like Hudson valley base + rubber blow up animals. Gnarly but good!

440mml. can. Tasted on the 21/04/2019 at Northern Monk Refectory MCR, Manchester (England). Orange colour with a low white head. Aroma is disolvent, vanilla, tart and lactic. Taste is phenolic, riped fruits, tart, vanilla and sour. Intense phenolic and maracuja finish. Extremely overpriced. No! Next one please!

Can. Little Leeds Beer House. Gloopy, mango smoothie kind of appearance. Barely a head. Nose has passion fruit. Mango heavy smoothie. Victoria sponge cake. Taste is tart, tangy, and super fruity. Nice tart bitterness, too. Silky and mouth watering on the palate. Low carbonation. Tart and juicy sweetness to finish. One of those beers that you could try and describe for an age, and never really do justice to. Delicious, in a word.
