Murky pale blond colour. Weird, sweet citrus and butter; the mouthfeel is not too dry, luckily almost not chalky; I know that Sorachi Ace has almost a buttery feeling, and Talus is new to me (so, maybe similar), but this really tastes quite buttery. Low bitterness, moderately juicy. Drinkable. Weird.

473mL can, pours an opaque murky dull orange with a medium white head. Aroma is awful, with boiled vegetables, and diacetyl — that is just rank. Flavour (oh jeez, am I really gonna put this in my mouth) is nearly as bad, with lots of boiled vegetables, a little less butter, and citrus hops. This is really poor—probably the worst Superflux I've had. Nasty use of hops.

16oz shared with Alex @ home. Appearance: murky blonde with a white head. Aroma: weird veggie, flower, grassy notes. Taste: along the same lines with creamy notes. Overall: weird one, I believe this experiment is not very successful, hehe.

Has that dullish greyish opaque colour that I don't care for. Thin head. On the nose, there's a dose of citra but also a heavier grassy sulphur note - could be the talus or could be the amount of hop. Similar on the palate. There's a nice melony note in there, but still it's pretty grassy. The malt base is weak, so there's a balance thing. It's okay, but experimental is the right word.
