Opaque, just a thin head. Bright papaya and apricot hop aroma. Juicy palate, a fair bit of sweetness up front, grapefruit and peach. The bitterness builds on the tongue quickly. A touch of chalk but mostly bright juiciness. I hope Superflux was taking notes because if they learned how to make IPA from S&O the way S&O learned how to make lager from Dageraad, that kind of knowledge transfer would benefit the craft beer scene here a lot.

473mL can, pours a clear golden with a small white bear. Aroma brings out bright piney hops, biscuity malt, and a touch of grass. Flavour is bright, with lots of grassy and piney hops, biscuity malt, citrus and some spiciness. Spicy, citrusy and piney finish. Very good.

Medium brown with a frothy head. Toasty, rossty, fairly bitter. Good body, too. Drinks bigger than you'�d expect, solid work here.

Hazy amber with a fairly thick head. The bergamot is a pretty nice accent to floral, fruity hops and a lightly caramelly malt base. I'�d prefer a pure pale malt base on this, however.

Poured from 473mL can (canned 10 Jul 2023). Hazy yellow gold with small white head. Dank citrusy tropical hops with lots of prickly pear, a bit of guava, and some feint passionfruit. Decent.
