Can from Beer52. Semi-hazy gold with small white head. Aromas of citrus zest, pineapple, coconut, mint, a dusting of dankness. Taste of bready malts, light caramel, coconut, citrus, stone fruits, mint, spice, creamy vanilla. Medium bodied, light chewiness, fine carbonation, warming. Nice although not convinced the vanilla addition works on this one, it sort of detracts from the rest of the beer rather than improves it.

[33cl can from Beer52.] A hazy amber pour with a rim of white head; lemony citrus aroma; tropical fruit taste with some chewy malts and a rather thin body; then a slightly acidic finish with gentle warmth and a pleasant touch of vanilla.

Tight white head on a hazy dull amber coloured body. Tangerine, weed, malt & hoppy aroma. Medium, soft over the tongue with a sticky back. The taste is nothing like the aroma. Sweet confectionery, peach, floral & vanilla tastes with a tangy finish. Very nice.
