Can 1 US pint. Label actually says: Black Currant, Passion Fruit and Guava at 6,5%. Pours a cloudy, opaque melon juice red with no head. Really looks like a fruit smoothie. Intense fruit aroma with the guava and passion fruit dominating. Medium body, next to no carbonation, tart, very exotic fruit melange flavor but sort of in a bubblegummy way. No hoppiness whatsoever. It really takes the term beer to its limit, but I kinda enjoy it. 250222

0.47l can. Looks like pulpy orange juice. Aroma and taste of orange juice too with some notes of goose berries, pine and chalk. Drinkable but it lacks complexity and bitterness (even if it's a NEIPA).

Can from the Watering Hole in Murphys. Pours a dark gold-orange with small off-white head. Pungent, with grapefruit in moderate amounts. Slight heat on the aroma from the alcohol. Flavor is sweet and orange with a massive bittering on the back half and moderately cloying. No dating on the can, so I wonder if the hop flavor and aroma have faded, as the hops are not terribly present.

Can from La Riviera in Sacramento, CA. Pours hazy orange gold with a creamy white head. Aroma is very orange with a touch of zest. Med plus plus body. Flavor is orange with zest. It is fruity and bitter. Zesty bitter. Quite the experience. Nicely done.

Can from local small food store. Pours opaque dark orange with a transient white head. Aroma of grapefruit and pine with pretty heavy sweetish malt. Med plus body. Flavor is grapefruit/pine and there's a deal of mildly roasty malt. Not dry. Sort of like barleywine. Bitter. Works for me.

Can from a small food store. Pours clear bright gold with a decent white head. Mildly floral over breadiness. Med body, not quite. Flavor is floral, bready and a bit of Nobel spice. Better than many of the style for sure.

Can from Beergium. Hazy light orange pour with a white head. Tangerine, orange marmalade, peach, pineapple nose. Bucket loads of sweet citrus in the taste, tangy juicy fruit action. Intense bittersweet fruit burst on the palate. Tastes like I've just tucked into a bag of Starburst /Opal Fruits. Lovely!

Can. A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. That's good enough for Ratebeer of course. Fuck me! Small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts that are quite sweet and don't go that well with some obvious alcohol and pretty tangy piney citrus. Plenty of tingling spice. Bitterish tangy finish. Clunky with a capital clunk.
