345ml bottle. Opalescent, orange, golden colour with small to average, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Minimally grainy, pale malty and slightly grassy, hoppy aroma, minimally doughy, yeasty overtones, not much to specify. Taste is mildly bitter, minimally fruity and grassy hoppy, minimally grainy, pale malty basis with low residual sweetness, a touch of yellow apple; minimally mineral finish.
Watery texture, smooth, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium, dense, prickly carbonation.
Nothing wrong, but quite anaemic - so-so.

Can. Cloudy yellowish orange with a large white head. Aroma of citrus and crackers, hints of pineapple & passionfruit - a bit Wit-like. Very fizzy. Zesty and dry with moderate bitterness. If Matilda Bay is going out with this, it's not with a bang but a whimper - and this appropriately Hollow. But for 3% it's not not bad at all.

Pours straw, slightly hazy.Nose shows lemon, peach, apricot, sherbet.Flavours include orange, sherbet, floral hops, and delicate malt with slight hay notes.Calling it hazy seems to be a marketing decision rather than anything else.
