Bottle. Very cloudy gold with a large white head that lasts OK. Aroma of mango, lime, Dubbin, honeydew melon, some ointment. Light bodied, highly carbonated. Dryish, quite minerally despite the fruit flavours. Bracken and that slightly unfortunate ointment note along with firm bitterness. Mostly a good balance of fruity, funky and bitter notes.

(Can 4.6ABV) Pours opaque golden with decent white head. Nice aroma of pine and tropical fruit. Plenty of body and plenty of fine carbonation giving a great mouthfeel. There’s plenty of hops from start to finish but nicely balanced with refreshing tart notes and some light malt. Very enjoyable and refreshing.

(Can) Pours black with small coffee coloured head. Nice aroma of roast grains and chocolate. Great mouthfeel - full bodied, smooth with plenty of soft carbonation. Well balanced and enjoyable taste. The foundation is a pleasant sweetish stout and on this is laid plenty of chocolate and just the right amount of chilli - which is rare as it is usually barely perceptible or overwhelming. Very enjoyable.

On tap at Ballistic, Springfield. Black beer with a thin coffee coloured head. Nose is chocolate and cocoa. Very chocolaty, medium body, a touch of effervescence. Light finish with the chilli all at the end. Not too hot but definitely noticeable. Very drinkable.

On tap at Taphouse, Springfield. Pours a hazy amber with a thin white head. Nose of tropical fruit, very fresh with a hint of hops. Light carbonation, a little lacing. Lightly effervescent with subdued bitterness. Finish is quite complex with notes of nettles, aniseed and bitter lemon. Excellent IPA, perhaps could be a little bit more bitter but very nice nonetheless.

(Can) Pours clear golden with tiny white head. Subtle aroma reminiscent of strawberries and cream with cardboard hints. Light body, well carbonated. Good taste. Sour, but not very sour. Hints of strawberries and cream. Pleasant drinking.

Wasn't expecting much from this one, and was pleasantly surprised. Aromas of passionfruit, pineapple, straw and vanilla. It's slightly thin on the palate, with pineapple dominating. Pretty smashable.

375ml can into glass. From Liquor shop, Brighton-Le-Sands. Cloudy amber beer with no head. Funky nose reminiscent of strawberry yoghurt. Spritzy, sparkly, quaffable. Finish is more berries and sweet yoghurt. Very nice sour without being overly adventurous.
