Canned 10/8. Amber with a good cm of fluffy white head. Aroma of pine, pineapple, peach, mango skin. bread. Barely medium bodied. Some passionfruit and red berries in the taste too, which is dryish despite the sweet seeming fruity hops with some light spices at the moderately bitter end. Should have a bit more grunt at 8%? Eh, it's very nice.

(Can, 0.44l, thanks Arde, at VastActiv, 20230518) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had herbalness, grapefruit and tart fruits. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grapefruit, fruitiness, herbalness, spiciness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity and bitter. Tasty.

Can. Clear golden amber with a good cm of white head that fades. Aroma of grapefruit, some mandarin, pine, orange blossom, mango skin, light bread. Light bodied with little malt character. More tropical fruit (and dope) than citrus in the taste with firm pine-tinged bitterness at the dry end. Good, if not very welcoming.

(Can) Pours slightly hazy golden amber with nice white head. Lovely aroma with tangerine, pine, and bread. Great mouthfeel with lots of soft carbonation and medium body. Good taste too. Good fruity start with fragrant citrus and then plenty of hoppy bitterness. Enjoyable hoppy beer.

Can. Misted golden amber with a 1/2 inch head. 3+ Aroma of grapefruit pith, light bread, some softer citrus, sherbet, peach. Not quite as vibrant a taste but fruity with some light pine needles and spices towards the dryish and moderately bitter end.
