Can at home from J and a Craft Drinks, Amsterdam, 18th February 24. Pours a deep hazy orange yellow, totally opaque. Aroma is gooseberry, mango, tropical, juicy, some citrus. Taste is complex, citrus and mango, gooseberries, dank, earthy, medium bitter, light savoury. Delicious hop soup in a glass

0,473l can from J&B Craft Drinks online store. Canned 07/04/23, so 3 months old stuff. Murky yellow beer with medium, stable cloudy white head. Aroma has hops, exotic fruits, dank. Flavor has same elements. Dry-hopped, smooth, dry finish. Excellent.

Canned 1/3/23, drunk 1/27/23. Heavily hazy, bronze brass. Little, white head. Low retention. Just a solid rendition of these hops. Cracker malts, clean yeast and white wine. Mosaic sticks out like a sore thumb but isn't overly oniony. Clean, no alcohol. Soft, juicy, some onion, some alcohol, cracker and white bread. Bit of pine and cherry. Some grape. Bit sweet, overly mosaic, but solid all around.

Pours a hazy, banana-pineapple color, with smallish head. Aroma is quite dank, with a sharp upfront note of green onion/cheese, followed by citrus and tropical fruit. Flavor largely follows. Soft, sweet, smooth mouthfeel. Almost no hop bitterness at the finish. Mmmmmmm...
