Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours cloudy blonde to amber with a decent frothy white head. The aroma is earthy, spicy, wood, earthy, cereal, behind it is sweet ripe coconut, coconut cake, some greenness, chalky vibes, mochi and Turkish delight. The taste is firmly dry, earthy, wood, spruce, spicy, leafy, bitter orange peel, campari, slight astringency, green coconut, pineapple, Pina colada, powdery / chalky vibes, mochi, floral vibes and a touch of booze with a drying, bitter citrus peel finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Sometimes kviek yeast amplifies the fruity vibes but for me it muddles things here a bi As a sabro-bro I still like it but had hoped for more.
