Drinks like silk, saturated in ripe citrus, mango and slight passionfruit. The yeast we chose for this particular beer also gives off very subtle notes of vanilla, which rounds everything out.

Canned 473ml. -at Ambasada Zagreb, shared with Iznogud. Hazy golden coloured, medium sized off-white head, ripe tropical fruits and some alcohol in the nose. Ripe tropical fruits, bit candy, caramel, notes of alcohol and sweet finish. Several weeks too old but not dead.

473ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, golden colour with average, frothy to creamy, slowly diminishing, moderately lacing, white head. Citrusy fruity, slightly tropical fruity, hoppy and minimally spicy aroma, oaty and wheaty malty background, notes of mango, passion fruit, mandarine, orange, some lemon and vanilla, weak, minimally earthy, leafy, almost tobacco-like overtones. Taste is mildly bitter, citrusy fruity and tropical fruity, minimally leafy hoppy, oaty and wheaty malty basis with some residual sweetness, light spiciness, a weak woody touch, notes of mango, mandarine, sweet orange, mild zesty bitterness, a touch of vanilla, oak and tobacco.
Creamy texture, smooth and soft, minimally dry palate, medium, dense, mildly prickly carbonation.
Well balanced, sweet but not too sweet, weak but very interesting and matching, leafy and woody aspects, light vanilla touch but still far from a Milkshake IPA - pretty good.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a hazy, milky gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates. White grapefruit, mango and orange cream on the nose. Silky smooth texture with no carbonation. More grapefruit, citrus zest and mango lassi notes. Needs more carbonation to be a top class contender.

--Sample, thanks fonefan! -- Cloudy straw colour, mid sized head. Aroma of pineapple and passionfruit. Mid sweet with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Peach and pineapple and boozy alcohol atop neutral somewhat fruity malt. Peppery warming finish with fairly low bitterness.

Sample (thanks fonefan!). Hazy orange colour with a small white head. Aroma is fruity and floral, alcohol tones with mild mango and peach. Flavour is fruity, floral, alcohol and some slight mango and peach with some syrupy sweetness too.

Can sourced from Kihoskh and drunk at home (20/05/2023) - New 🇺🇸 brewery ✅ opaque golden orange with a nice white head. Intense deep veritable melange of exotic tropical and citrus fruit delivered here, getting big papaya and mango, peach, passionfruit, tangerine, sweet dense smooth creamy malty mouthfeel and backbone, solid hoppy finish. Gorgeous.
