Can from Beer Republic. (Labeled May 2023 / Batch 5) Hazy yellow with a medium white head. Sweetish with juice, pineapple, mango and citrus. Soft bitterness. A bit old but still a pleasant one.

Can sourced from Drikbeer and drunk at home (01/07/2023 hmm seems we have batch 1 and 2 of this on RB but brewer has added this as batch 5 on UT, will let RB admin decide if to merge to batch 2 from 2022 or not, my canned date 3rd May 2023) pours opaque golden orange with a creamy white head. Big bold fruity with a plethora of tropical and citrus hits delivered, juicy grapefruit and orange, some pineapple, melon, citrus peel and tingling hop spice bite, dense oat and wheat laden malty backbone, robust solid hoppy finish. Lovely stuff.

16oz can pours a murky yellow with plenty if sudsy white head. Citra and citrus perfume out of the glass, grassy and herbal, classic Citra. Flavor has simple grist with some creamy oat, then orange and grass and herbs, some melon, some hand soap and perfume. Finishes fairly pillowy, dry.
