Can, thanks Colin! Nice tropical feel, also ripe yeasty aromas, almost like some wild yeasts are in the mix. Interesting and really good.

Can at home, 05/02/17. Hazed orange golden with a well presented off white head. Nose is orange peel, melon, straw, fresh grass, light spice, juicy hop slash. Taste comprises tangerine, floral notes, straw, bread dough, pale malts, light pissy citricana, ripe melon, lemon sherbets. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a juicy hop tang. Solid hopped lager, could crush a lot of this, nice pissy dank edge to it.

Can (best before date - 30th May 2017). Hazy golden body with a thin white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of green apple, celery and orange sherbet. Flavour of mint, blood orange and lime. Medium body with a smooth, frothy texture. Soft fizz. There’s a nice Orval-esque vibe to this. My favourite Chorlton beer to date.
