7.1/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Can from Albert Heijn. Clear yellow, small, foamy, off-white head. Aroma of lime juice, citrus zest, mandarin, pineapple. Taste has sweetish peach, sourish lime and some grapefruit, over basic pale maltiness. Floral hoppy finish, very citrusy, more bitter citrus peel & zest. Medium body, slick texture, average carbonation. Not expressive in aroma but nice to drink.

355ml can. Slightly milky, yellow-ish, golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, snow white head. Piney, citrusy and slightly grassy, hoppy aroma, pale malty background, hints of tangerine, lemon, grapefruit, a touch of woody pineapple. Taste is moderately bitter, piney and citrusy hoppy, pale malty basis almost without residual sweetness, hints of tangerine, grapefruit, some pineapple, grassy undertones, mineral overtones. Watery texture, dry palate, medium, slightly prickly carbonation. Drinkable, balanced - decent.

355ml can from Waitrose (Newport, Shropshire): BB 15th July 2022. Drank at home on 30th November 2021. Light haze to the golden/yellow body, white head. Citrussy front to the nose and taste, piney notes arrive as it warms in the glass, decent enough without setting my socks on fire.
