Can. Somewhat hazy gold with a fading white head. Aroma is a bit Reef Oil with coconut, menthol and mandarins. Less so in taste with a dryish and moderately bitter finish. Sabro as a single hop not as good as the others (so far) by some distance.

Can. Slightly opaque gold. Tropical nose. Some coconut on top in terms of flavour. Much less of a punch than I expected. Thought there would be a lot more coconut. Still very drinkable.

Can. Somewhat hazy golden amber with a good cm of white head. Aroma of kumquats, pine needles, breadcrust, some mango. Quite sweet with caramel, mango and the bottom end of the resin oozing through before the citrus lightens things at the fairly bitter finish. Floral notes linger right at the end. Prefer the Citra hopped one but that's just my hop preference - this is another very good IPA.

330ml can into shaker. Pours a cloudy amber with a frothy white head. Nose is earthy and full of citrus rind. Stupidly easy to drink thanks to light bitterness, mild effervescence and smooth body. Finish is bitter, fruity, drying. Really moreish, love it.

Quarantinnie. Deep gold with a dense white head that lasts really well. Aroma threatens but doesn't quite deliver - citrus, slightly biscuity malt, nectarines, flowers. Sweet. The fruit - and some resin - slightly overmatch the rich but clean malt. Which is a shame because the aroma says clearly that it's a lager. The palate is less focused. Bitterness is firm but has to struggle through a tad. Not bad at all.

Can. Fairly hazy deep gold with a white head that hangs around as a coat. Pungent hoppy aroma with kumquats, mango skin, brooding pine, light bread. Not all that much body but enough to allow the hops dimension. Taut fruit, an explosion of resin, brief firm bitterness. It's not Pseudo Sue but it's in the neighbourhood.

Can packaged 6 days ago. Gold, slightly hazy. Very fresh nose - loads of passionfruit and resin. Wonderfully tropical and herbaceous at same time. So much fun in one glass.
