(473ml can c/o Luc, thanks!) Pours opaque orange-tinged yellow with a thick dense white head that's very stable with good lace. Aroma is pulpy navel orange, tangerine, raspberry and pink grapefruit, spicy juniper and pine, backnotes of coconut and mixed tropicals. Flavour is fairly dry but rich and saturated, notes of raspberry and pink grapefruit dominate, quite spicy (though not hot) pine, dill, moderate coconut creaminess, zesty grapefruit and raspberry dominating in the mid-to-finish. Oaty-feeling cereals but not much malt sweetness, delicately bready. Finish is dry, slightly mineral, raspberry and citrus oils with a little spicy cedar-type conifers. Medium-bodied, oily to creamy, soft carbonation. Talus and Sabro were driving the show here so whether this is tasty probably depends on your feeling about those hops; for me this was an unusually good Talus beer and I liked the hop profile.
