Can. Not far off clear amber with a fluffy white head. Aroma of pine, breadcrust and biscuit with some grapefruit and mango skin. Just medium bodied, slightly creamy. Sweet with caramel notes meeting pine and tropical fruit before strong bitterness. Pretty good, avoids some of the pitfalls of this type of IIPA.

(Can) Pours hazy amber with small white head. Nice fairly mutes aroma of pine, caramel and hint of fruit. Great mouthfeel. Medium bodied, smooth with plenty of soft carbonation. Great taste too, as long as you like hops. The start and mid palate have a nice balance between gentle caramel sweetness and piney peppery hops. In the finish the hoppy bitterness grows significantly dominating everything else, in a rather pleasant and impressive way. Very hoppy, very nice.

440ml can into glass. From 1st Choice, Springfield. Smell of sweet peanut butter. Dark brown/red beer with thin white head. Viscous and smooth. Finish has touches of cocoa. A bit dry but really this is all about peanut butter. Not for everyone but I love it.

(Can) Pours opaque golden yellow, almost as dense as fruit juice, with a small white head. Lovely aroma of peaches. Medium body with fine carbonation. Nicely tart, peaches and lemon, hints of earthiness, maybe funkiness. Very nice.

From a 355ml can on 1/11/2021. Pours an opaque deep golden with barely any head. Has a modest sweet nose with a bit of fruit and bubblegum. Tastes quite sweet with lots of orange with a fairly firm tang leading into a modest bitterness. Has a slightly creamy mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. Comes together really nicely.

From a 440ml can on 27/10/2021. Pours a slightly hazy medium golden with a small head. Has a light tropical and stone fruit nose. The flavour features mainly apricot with some orange in the mix. Finishes with a mild bitterness. Has a slightly silky mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. Not a stand out, but pleasant and quite well put together.

From a 355ml can on 11/10/2021. Pours an opaque deep golden with barely any head. Has a slightly tangy fruit nose. Tastes of orange, mango and strawberry, with a distinct tang at the back, along with just a touch of warmth.. The mouthfeel is creamy, the carbonation average. Sweet but not overly so, and there's a fair bit going on. I really enjoyed this - very flavoursome and exhibits really nice balance.
