Poured up on tap at Tipsy Cactus where it exhibits a mildly hazy golden colored body that supports a regenerative near white head of foam. The mild aroma offers up grapefruit, citrus pith, tangelo and then a bit of berry like notes. The taste delivers smooth to growing citrus hop bitterness that ranges from bitter grapefruit and grapefruit pith to tangy slightly under ripe tangelo. To midway it picks up various berry like fruitiness running up against the citrus hop bitterness. It ends fairly dry with a sense of the malt base and lingering bitter to almost tart grapefruit pith. Fun one.

Bottle from a local supermarket. Aroma is nicely tropical with citrus, pineapple, grass, and a touch of coconut. Flavour is moderate bitter with low sweetness. Medium body. Refreshing, tropical, a steal.

Can, 5.2%. Distinct fruity and caramelly, spicy hoppiness. Almost clear golden colour. Small white head. The flavour has a good caramelly maltiness with vanilla notes, Nelson Sauvin, coconut. Thin mouthfeel, but ok for the style. High bitterness, slightly rough.
