6.6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
473ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, bright golden colour with average, fluffy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Citrusy fruity hoppy aroma with minimally papery, cryo-like overtones, notes of lemon, a touch of yuzu, rather unspecific hints of orange citrus fruit, fennel overtones. Taste is slightly dry, slightly papery, minimally artificial, citrusy fruity hoppy, sweet-ish, minimally sugary, malty basis, hints of lemon, sweet pineapple, slight cryo aspects, later the aforementioned fennel touch comes in again. Watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously slightly dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. Quite artificial fruit flavours in a double sense: not only that the hop flavours aren't exactly the fruit flavours, they even don't seem to be hop induced, fruit simulating flavours; all rather feels like sugar and a kind of hop powder dissolved in water, restrained and aseptic - not really convincing.

(473ml can from the brewery) Pours opaque milky medium yellow with a thick white head and heavy lace. Aroma of unripe pineapple, lemon peel, grapefruit, cannabis, wet leaves, touch of green onion, earth. Flavour is off-dry, bright but not overly fruity, lemon, white grapefruit, unripe pineapple, citrus pith, touches of citric acidity even, a little dank cannabis, soft doughy malt, clean yeast, a bit of stone fruit in the finish with some resin and pale citrus peels, aftertaste is lightly bitter and peppery. Medium-bodied, fairly creamy, soft carbonation. Dank-ish, not a juice bomb, somewhat as expected given this hop bill though even for these hops it's not reflecting their jucier sides. Well-made if not quite to my taste.
