Can. Amber with a good inch of white head. Aroma is spicy and piny with bread, some citrus and under-ripe tropical fruit. A little breadcrust sweetness with lots of spice and pine needles, lime and kumquat. Firmly bitter at the end. Pretty good.

Can. Slightly cloudy gold with a good inch of white head. 3+ Aroma is a little shy with grapefruit, pine, some dope-tinged biscuit. So it tastes. Light bodied, moderately sweet. Fruity then piney as bitterness gently squeezes.

Can. Nearly clear amber with a 2cm white head. Oozy fruity aroma with passionfruit, grapefruit, orange, honeydew melon, light biscuit. Tropical fruit is sharpened by citrus. Resin builds towards a firmly bitter finish. Another good one in this series.

Can. Clear orange with a cm of white head. Pine needle and breadcrust aroma with some orange, guava, bubblegum. Sweet with an unusual candy-like hop note and some tropical fruit lurking under a fairly big piney bitter bite. Interesting.

(Can) Pours hazy golden with small white head. Nice aroma of pine with hints if tropical fruit. Medium body with plenty of soft mouth filling carbonation. Taste is nicely hoppy from start to pleasantly bitter finish. There’s some notes of biscuit malt in the mid palate. Very drinkable.

I'll give it credit for the mountains of passionfruit and tangerine floating out of the glass, but it's mostly downhill from there. It's certainly refreshing but lacks a malt structure and comes across as almost softdrink-like.
