(473ml can from Mikkeller Webshop) Pours quite hazy medium gold with a decent-sized white head and light lace. Aroma of sweet biscuit malt, melon, papaya, peach, light flowers and grass. Flavour is rather sweet up front, powdered sugar, cantaloupe, tangerine, papaya, very ripe. A bit of white bread malt but pretty retiring, soft fruit peel bitterness and grass, bare hint of booze, so semi-sweet through the finish and into the aftertaste, fruit and powdered sugar linger. Medium bodied, softly carbonated. A bit too sweet to be excellent, despite the flavours of overripe fruit being tasty it needs a little more to balance that from mid-sip on.
