(500ml bottle from the brewery) Hazy deep yellow pour with a small but stable white head and lace. Aroma of mandarin, citrus peels, floral tropical fruit, moderate weed, sweet brioche malt, fruity esters, grapefruit pulp. Flavour is quite sweet up front with mandarin, candied orange, papaya, some 'red' tropical fruit/berries, soft dank weedy notes, brioche malt, again sweet fruity esters into the finish, cirus peels and rindy red tropical fruits, very low bitterness, slight touch of alcohol. Light to medium bodied for style but with a fluffy creamy smooth texture and low carbonation that feels nice to drink. Another winner from Badlands, even if it's a touch sweet.
