Can split at CBJ, thanks to Kenny, 18/10/23. Golden orange topped with an off white head. Nose is orange zest, grapefruit, pine needle, mango splash. Taste comprises ripe melon, orange peel, mixed tropical fruit esters, mango, light pine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy hop bitterness. It's okay but stuck between 3rd and 4th gear, expect more from this brewer normally, never mind for a special brew.

Bottle share at CBJ. Thanks to me for the can. A light haze on this orange gold beer, small bubbly cream colour head. Smooth airy palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, quite caramel and cream. Ripe citrus fruits, a little ripe tropical fruits. Semi dry finish. Feels like a tired West Coaster, disappointing.

Can shared at CBJ - cheers to Kenneth. Pours clear gold with a creamy, white head. Medium to big sweet flavour, rich and malty, some orange, booze, pine. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet finish, more booze, lightly toasted malts, citrus. Not bad.

440ml can (Arbor finally realised it's neither big nor clever to put high ABV DIPAs in full pint cans!? Never thought I'd see the day). Pours hazy amber with a beige head. Aroma of sweet ripe tropical fruits, marmalade, grapefruit. Taste is sweet, ripe tropical fruits, mango, orange, marmalade, grapefruit, slightly dank, not much bitterness but definitely a bit of booze at the end. A bit confusing as it presents as West Coast but it's very much a NE flavour profile. Decent but lacking some drinkability at this strength.
