440ml can, bought as part of a delivery from the Fuss Club and drunk at home. The light side of Middle of the road yellow gold, hazy with a large loose ring of white head. Soft notes of melon, mango and vanilla in the aroma. Not overly sweet in the mouth but quite juicy, with tangerine and mango here. A little sharp bitterness in the finish. Pretty good stuff, maybe slightly too dry at the end for what I like in these beers.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Just a light haze on this slightly pale gold beer, small and short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth if slightly thin pale malts, a decent creamy sweetness. Light cooling pine. Juicy candyish hops, a little bright citrus. Light and semi dry finish. Tidy but I was a tiny bit disappointed that the Chinook didn't play a bigger role.
