Sampled @ Borefts Pre-tasting. Opaque, looks like tropical fruit juice. No head. Smell and taste sourness indeed mixed with tropical fruit. Not much more to tell. Ok but it also tastes a bit cheap. Drinkable though. 7-2-6-3-11.

Sampled @ Borefts Pre-tasting. Interesting. So unclear murky that it simply looks like squeezed mangos. No head. Aroma is mostly sour though, don't get mango that clearly. Flavor is also dominated by sourness but yes, some mango there. Solid. 6-2-8-3-14.

Sampled @ Borefts Pre-tasting. Murky milkshake-ish peach colored pink, average sized white head. Smells quite fruity, peach, very sweet. Flavor though, sour! Fruity sour but a bit too sour for me to really like it. Decent tough. 8-3-6-3-14.
