Pours mostly clear gold with a sizable head. It smells of tropical fruit and some pine. The tropical fruit is joined by solid bitterness and pleasant bready malt. This is a very nice tropical IPA.

16oz can from HalfTime. Deep crimson pour, small islands of pink bubbles. Aroma reminds me of Hawaiian Punch. Taste is fruit punch, sweet, so easily drinkable. Wow! Love this!

1 pint can from Carwyn Cellars. Gluten Free. Hazed pale yellow colour, short-lived white foam head and aroma of lemon & dill cucumber. Taste is sweet, lemony, with dill cucumber note and some sour acidity. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, sweet & sour tart finish. Quite OK.

Can from Brew Export Advent Calendar. Beetroot red. Hazy. Head disappeared in seconds. Aroma has initial fruity and berry sourness before a sweet honey, dough and custard element appears. Flavourwise it is sweet and sour - the lemon and berries and honey. Underlying custard. Hints of dough in the mix. But a sour edge throughou. Medium-thick bodied. Creamy. Soft-flat carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Highly drinkable if highly offensive to traditionalists.
