Cloudy golden with a firm white head. Bright yet soft fruit, spice notes, a bit herbal, a hint of tropical fruit. Medium bodied. Finish is more of the same and lightly dry. Unexpected and highly enjoyable.

440 ml can, from KWM Wines & Sprits. ABV is 6.4%. Hazy brownish-orange colour, moderate white head. Aroma of grapefruity and piney American hops. The flavour is not too sweet, but has a sufficient malty base, followed by notes of grapefruit, bitter oranges and resin, and a distinctly bitter finish.
