Can. A medium haze on this gold beer, good size pale cream colour head, persistent. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. The quartet of Kiwi hops are delivered with aplomb. Cooling pine into surprisingly punchy Nelson, obvious gooseberry and grape. Riwaka lychee and a touch of Motueka floral lime that goes well with late emerging, slightly tangy and slightly ripe lemon, presumably Pac Sunrise. A few esters I could do without but, overall, this brew is a fine IPA and, to be honest, well exceeded my preconceptions.

440ml can bought from Mill Hill Cask & Coffee, Enderby. Drunk at home. Very light yellow, hazy with a big loose white head. Light notes of pineapple and pink grapefruit with some vanilla wafer malty notes. Sweet taste, a little bit herbal, a little bit acidic. Hoppy bitterness. Light to medium body with good carbonation. I mean, it's fine, but not as satisfying as many similar IPAs.

Can from the brewer's own stall at the Birmingham NEC Good Food Show. Hazy orangey-gold colour with a white head. Tropical fruits up front - peach and mango. Increasing taste of orange juice coming through. Sweetish with unexpected tart notes. Decent.

Many thanks to jjsint for a 440ml can of this one. Carried back home and shared with Finn at his place. Big white head, opaque golden body, crocheted lacing. Moderate smell of cereal malts and citrus fruits. Ripe fruity flavours with a backbone of juicy malts. Mid-dry malt-fruity ending. Medium bodied. Quite alright. (Tromsø, 05.04.2024).

Gave fra jjsint. Delt med Rune på Vervet. Gusjegrågul. Høyt kritthvitt luftig skum. Kniplingslacing. Veldig uklar. Lett sitrusaroma. Smaken tørket frukt. Forbausende anonymt.
