Sample, thanks oh6gdx! Cloudy yellow, small head. Aroma of guava and ear wax. Sweet wiith thin body and limp mouthfeel. Stearin and guava on syrup and cardboard. A bit of lemon juice in the finish. Pretty sad stuff.

44cl can from AbeerVinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours juicy yellow, with minimal foam. Aroma is markedly tropical, fruity. Body is average, with close to no carbonation. Taste is slightly acidic, with some fruity sweetness as well. Final is rather dry.

44cl can from Selver ABC, Laagri. Pours hazy to muddy yellow with a white head. Fruity aroma with notes of passion fruit and other tropical fruits, mild citrus and feels a bit like slightly sour, watered out tropical juice. Moderate to medium sweet with medium to low flavour intensity and light acidic notes. Fruity and somewhat refreshing.
