From a 355ml can on 14/11/2021. Pours and ultra clear golden with a smallish head. The nose is grassy with a bit of citrus in the mix. Tastes of citrus fruit with some herbal and spicy notes, finishing with a moderate rye bitterness. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Clean, tasty and very solid.

Can. Clear gold with a good inch of white head. Citrus and spicy notes front the aroma with some tropical fruit and floral tones underneath. Moderately sweet with mango lollies and coconut more prominent than in the aroma along with plainish bread. The end is dryish and moderately bitter. The spiciness of rye gets a little lost at the end but is nice in the middle. 3rd Pink Boots rye/ hop blend beer so far and the 3rd good one.

Bottle. Confusing label - Diogenes the himbo? Clear amber, less than a coat of off white head is soon gone. 3-Aroma of grappa, bread, dried fruit. Oily, low carbonation. Sweet with bread, grapes in various states (fresh, moldering, oxidised). Firmish bitterness grips gradually - maybe it's more than firmish. After a while there are spicy hints that rye is involved. No overt alcohol. Good - enough going on to be interesting but for the strength I would have liked either a bit more depth or some a lightening lilt.
