Can, 0.473l. Aroma of citrus, mango, resin and biscuit. Pours clear amber color with medium sized soapy off-white head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts juicy tropical fruity and citrusy with strong malty backbone, following is herbal and slightly medicinal, mouthfeel is warm and mild spicy, while finish is heavy bitter. Full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Go west forever…

Can picked up from Beer Republic webshop Breda, Netherlands and consumed at home Saturday 11th November 2023 listening to Dreamwife - Social Lubrication and still making a Vanilla Ice Cream the Beef Rogan Josh is taking a little longer, Loz is making this, we're also making Onion Bhajis for the curry and Baked Apples to go with my Ice Cream. Pours hazy golden with a mid sized white head. Very much a West Coast IPA, crystal malts really making presence felt, there is some citrus with a little pink breakfast grapefruit but mostly its resinous, nice soft carbonation, very good.

Aromas are mainly fresh resin hops with a little citrus, grain and spice. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, citrus comes out a little more but still dominated by resin with good balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation. Bittersweet finish and good body. Alcohol is well hidden. Nice beer.
