This beer is a tropical citrus dream, loaded with juicy guava, creamy banana, ripe mango, zesty mandarin and a bright twist of lemon all smoothed out with a touch of rich vanilla.
Pouring thick and hazy with a glowing golden-orange hue, the aroma is an intoxicating blend of tropical smoothie, citrus sorbet and vanilla bean.
On the palate each fruit shines through in harmony – banana and mango bring the body and sweetness, lemon and mandarin cut through with refreshing tang, while guava and vanilla round it all off with a luscious finish.

Dyp gul uklar med seint gult skum som forsvinner fort. Lukter mango, banan og mandarin. Middels fylde. Tykk. Fruktig, noe sur. Smaker mango, klementin, banan og noe vanilje.

Smell- weak fruits, mango, banana, jammy.
Foam- dmsll yo medium but bit hard to see where head starts.

Taste - weak hops, some fruits, mango, banana, faint sourness, not feeling too beery, but overall ok. I like it.

440ml can. Opaque orange, bubbly "head". Aroma of mango and guava. Taste of mango and guava primarily (which is delicious), the mandarin, lemon and banana get a bit lost, and even the vanilla does too as it doesn't seem overly sweet for what it is, it's just pure mango and guava puree really, light sourness. Thick full body.
One of the best non-beer smoothies I've had.
