Looks like they have changed it up a little - 5.0 ABV rather than 5.2 as the original entry says. Feels like a macro lager with a more interesting hop profile. The aroma and taste are dominated by a straw flavour with a nice hoppy finish. Nothing to write home about.

Can. Pale gold, small white head. Aroma of citrus peel - kumquat & mandarin - spices, a hint of berry pastilles. There’s not a lot to support the hops and they get a bit earthy and bitey upon a swig even though the bitterness is only moderate. Is this one of IPL ones? I guess the name suggested it wouldn’t move me.

Can. Dark brown with a scant coat of tan head. 3- Aroma of chiles, a little plasticy really, some caramel and roast behind. Medium bodied. Quite hot with no plummy rumble that you'd associate with chipotles. The caramel and roast are not quite overwhelmed and the heat fades pleasantly. Fair enough.

Well this is a pity, the can is by far the best part. Very overcarbed to start with. Watery, lightly sour, and I just hate hibiscus. It's a bit what was promised though, if only they fixed that carbonation issue. Worst hibiscus sour of the weekend.

An old fashioned WCIPA with a little something extra. Loads of pine, resin and grapefruit give way to a little caramel aroma. The taste's slightly short, but otherwise very enjoyable.
