Can, 0.355l. Aroma is citrusy, piney, floral, mild tropical fruity and biscuity. Pours cloudy pale golden color with large soapy white head, fair lacing and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts refreshing tropical fruity, citrusy and herbal, following is bready and slightly medicinal, mouthfeel is rather dry, while finish is pretty bitter. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. All Blacks’ slope…

35cl Blik van Beer Republic. Iets mistig goudgele kleur, witte kraag. Druiven, kruisbes, hint van citroenschil, licht harsig, licht moutzoetje. Lichte body. Degelijk, niet heel uitgesproken, maar deze zit ook al tegen z'n tht aan.

Can from from Beer Republic, webshop Breda Netherlands and consumed at home Sunday 28th January 2024 after a lovely 20km loop hike this time from the house to Kadernberger Hütt'n, Schönberg via Gmünd, Großmisselberg and back via Innernzell, listening to The National - Laugh Track. Pours golden in colour with a sticking to the sides white head. A touch of tropicana on the nose, but a grassy hoppiness also, these also display in the mouth, pleasant mouthfeel, a decent if rather mid table beer.

Can (from Beer Repulic). Slightly hazy yellow colour with a small white head. Aroma is fruity, floral, some some mild earthy and mild nectary tones. Flavour is nectar, tropical fruits, some herbal, grassy and mild biscuity and sweet caramel malts to it. Smooth, but also a nice bitterness to it.
