Can from Against The Grain. Clear deep golden body with a thin off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of orange and grapefruit. Flavour of orange peel and menthol. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. A solid IPA - bold and bitter. I hope to see more higher ABV beer from Pilot; the last few I remember have all been under 6% ABV.

330ml can. Clear pale gold with a white head. Aroma of elderflower, floral honey. Taste is floral and sweet, elderflower, honey, rice and pale malts, maybe some stone fruit, no bitterness. Light-medium bodied.

Can from Appellation Wines.
Appearance - cloudy yellow and a thin white head.
Nose - dank unmalted wheat, slightly cheesy but not in a bad way.
Taste - lemon, dried orange unmalted wheat and butter. Some hint of banana.
Palate - light bodied and tangy middle and finish.
Overall - enjoyable but not on style for me.
