440 ml can from Beergonzo, packaged 13/09/17. Thanks to Werckmeister!
Dark yellow, hazy body, with a big, stable, fluffy, slightly rocky, lacing, off-white head.
Aroma of distinct dankness, apricot juice, orange juice, lemon, lychee, grass, pine.
Tastes quite similar, a bit lighter, with some more bread.
Quite light, slick mouthfeel, with a lively carbonation.
Finishes medium dry, moderate bitter, a bit sweet, dank, medium juicy, fruity, piney, grassy, a bit bready.
Very refreshing stuff. The nose is the highlight, like a NE style IPA, with a lovely dankness and lots of juicy fruits. The taste can't fully hide the lower ABV, while it's still very nice and gets really crisp towards the finish. Lovely, characterful session ale.

440ml bottle. Hazy, orangey, bright golden colour with average to huge, thick, fluffy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Woody, citrusy and tropical fruity, hoppy aroma, unspecific fruitiness, maybe some passion fruit for analytical purposes, a strand of condensed lemon flavours. Taste is dry, woody, citrusy hoppy, a lemon-lime-mandarine-alloy somehow; dry, crumbly cardboard palate. New England at the limits: almost a bit plastic-like, synthetic mouthfeel.

Can, thanks to Cgarvieuk. Pours bright orange with large foamy off-white head, faint citrus aroma, low carbonation, smooth mildly bitter citrus peel taste, long medium bitter finish. Nice, well rounded, citrusy IPA.

440ml can from the brewery. Pours a misty gold, small white head. Aroma of punchy exotics, pineapple, papaya, peach, apricot, melon. Taste bears perhaps a lower fruit dose than usual with a light smooth body and pronounced pithy bitterness. Fresh, flavoursome session IPA.
