Can at home in the garden, 6th May 2025, from J and B Craft Drinks, Amsterdam. Pours a thick haze. Aroma is pineapple, yeast, tropical and citrus. Taste is quite yeasty and bitter, earthy, citrus, pineapple. It’s a good beer, not so taken on the yeast, but an interesting one for sure

Charlton draught, 10/29/24. Heavily hazy, bordering milky, golden-maize. Small, off-white head. Like Yellow Lady Slipper, it's a fun, super fruity, mega-estery yeast, though not bubble gummy. Mix of mineral, wood, chalk, sweat, pine and such with biscuity, lean, crackery malts. Clean. Soft and estery though gaining a good amount of cracker and hop bitterness. Tea-like spice, some cinnamon even (?). Bit of pineapple, mango, papaya and more lingering cinnamon. Good maltiness, dryness. Love the yeast character; the hop profile a little less so. Maybe a touch too much pineapple. But it is interesting and definitely mega fruity and juicy.

Pours a hazy, golden yellow, with mid-sized head. Aroma is citrus and tropical fruit, a touch of butterscotch. Flavors are citrus and tropical fruit, with a middling underlying sweetness. Soft mouthfeel. Mild hop bitterness through the finish.
