Can 355ml (Beer Republic, BB 11/22/17)
Clear dark amber colour, small steady off-white head. A bit bready aroma with some pine and caramalt. Medium-bodied. Piney hoppyness with some fruits andresin. Crystal malty backbone. Decent bitterness but aroma has lost its charm.

355ml can [Jalapango]. Cloudy, orangey, deep golden colour with average, thick, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Tropical fruity hoppy and spicy aroma, notes of mango, passion fruit, hints of papaya, a peppery spicy chili touch. Taste is initially tropical fruity hoppy, notes of mango, passion fruit, hints of papaya, a peppery spicy touch of chili, some chipotle dirty- and smokiness, later the peppery spiciness is accumulating to "hot", thereby disguising the only "warm" alcoholic touch; full body, dangerously drinkable.

Can at home, Nivala. (as Jalapango). Color is slightly murky orange with small white head. Aromas and flavors: Spices, paprika, some pepper, some fruits and malts. Paprika + beer = horror. Very bad drinkability
