473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy amber gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Aroma of caramel malt, grapefruit, orange, peach and floral hops. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, grapefruit, mango, peach, pine resin and grassy hops in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with a slick texture and average carbonation. Not sure what they think hazy means, but this ain't it.

Hazy, murky orange pour with a small white head. Lots of lactic acidity, and sour notes with some strong tart stone fruit, lemon zest, and and mango. Very soft, almost flat carb with a slightly watery mouth feel. The finish is quite fruity, and tart, not very sour. Lots of acidity, and a strong nectarine and the act flavour. Quite nice.
