(473ml can c/o Luc, thanks!) Pours opaque deep gold with a thick white head with good retention and lace. Aroma is citrus zest-heavy, a lot of bright lime and tangerine, some lemon, hints of sweeter pit/tropical fruit flesh, a little breadiness to the malt, fruity but not juicy, sweet florals. Flavour continues the citrus angle, a lot of bright lemon-lime and tangerine up front, only lightly sweet and very zesty, soft bready malt, loads of orange and lime peel oils from mid-sip on, bright and mineral, finish is laden with citrus zest oils/bitters, very aromatic, dry, lightly bitter, long aftertaste. Light to medium body, fairly creamy carbonation. Nice Dora version, the citrus-heavy vibe might not be for some but after a number of floral/melony Badlands this is a nice switch-up. Very refreshing.
