Can. Medium haze on this gold beer, tidy pale cream colour head, quite bubbly. Palate is light and mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth malts, a light creamy sweetness. Fairly bright pine into juicy bright citrus and a decent mango led tropical fruit showing. Trace of esters, nothing serious. Little pineapple on the light finish. This ain't a bad dipa at all, just needs a little tweak here and there.

400ml can at home. Pours a thick and soupy hazy light yellow with a large white head. Nose is mostly tropical fruit, red fruit, and biscuit. Flavour is mostly the same. Nice moreish aftertaste.

Can at home. Unclear hazy pale yellow color, white head. Smell and taste are typical of nowadays IPA's tbh: decently hoppy, decently fruity, average bitterness. It's all good, but they don't stand out.

Can from Eltham Wines. Hazy orange pour with a white head. Very citrusy nose, quite piney, splosh of tropical fruit. Taste is peach, mango, lots of sweet citrus, spot of pink grapefruit. Juicy fruity action. Most enjoyable.

On tap at Christian Firtal Pale Ale Festival. Cloudy golden with a lasting white head. Citrus hoppy aroma with a touch of nettles. Sweet malty flavour with a tired note.

Can from Vocation & Co, Hebden Bridge. Hazy golden with a head. Has a mix of tropical fruit and pine, in both aroma and taste and the latter of these is the more dominant. Its strength gives it quite a healthy taste too.

Draught at Skaal Sønderborg. Good fruity and peachy aroma. Cloudy yellow colour. Good stable white head. The flavour is sweet, fruity and juicy. Mineraly with malty white bread and malt syrup.

Draught @ SKAAL Sønderborg. Pours cloudy straw with airy but stable white head. Clear aroma of hops and citrus, with notes of fruit and malt, and touches of yeast. Bitter, hoppy and citric flavour with intense sweet notes of fruit and touches of malt. Bitter, fruity, and estery aftertaste. Good work.
