Can. Dark brown, a beige head fades to a cm fairly quickly. Yes, rum, chocolate and biscuit aroma. There's a little roast and tidy finishing bitterness so it doesn't feel like all the work is being done by the additions. Cleverly balanced and pretty good.

From a 355ml can on 22/11/2024.Pours a clear light golden with a medium head. Has a pleasant sharp ripe fruit nose. The taste features lemon, lime, orange and some pineapple. A touch more savoury than sweet. Has a decent sharp, tangy, lingering bitterness at the back. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Solid little IPA if not necessarily a world beater.

Can. Clear gold, white head. Bright kumquat & grapefruit aroma with some mango, pine and light bread. Some honey too. Pretty much how it tastes with citrus giving way to pine needles at the fairly bitter finish. Could be a bit cleaner but tasty enough.
