Can at home from Meny Domus Vista - Sweet fruity aroma and taste, some peach, some citrusy grapefruit and tangerine notes, citrus peel, malts, pretty juicy and decent mouthfeel for a AF, dry into the hoppy finish. Not a bad AF number.

(Can) Pale amber colour, slightly hazy, with frothy off-white head. Malty, hopyp nose with orange peel, pine needles, pineapple, grapefruit, honey and herbs. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of orange peel, pine needles, pineapple, grapefruit, honey and a generous citric/herbal bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Strongish, but in good balance. Malt to match the hops. Tasty and well balanced. Very nice.
