Can. Almost opaque yellowish orange with a white head. Tropical fruit cup aroma - guava, pineapple, tinned peach, vague crackers. Sweet tropical fruit cup jolts to antacid tablet and herbal bitterness. Didn't do a lot for me.

Can. Gold with a fading cm of white head. Aroma of tropical lollies, mandarin, some pine, strawberries, light bread. Plain sweet malt with less vibrant aromatics than suggested by the aroma before a gradually gripping bitter finish.

Can. Very hazy orange with a 2cm white head. Aroma of gooseberry, grassy white grapes, crackers, oranges - expressive but not aggressive. Sweet and juicy with tangy fruit and grass before moderate bitterness. Typical somewhat indistinct hazy palate but a very nice drop.

Can. Almost clean palish amber with a frothy 2cm white head. Fairly shy aroma of guava and orange with some crackers. 7- More fruit and somewhat more vibrant upon a swig with some peach, berries and pine that creeps up towards the fairly bitter finish.

Can. Almost opaque orange with a white head. Slightly shy aroma of mango, oranges, some lime, crackers. More vibrant taste - juicy but not overly sweet with a slight astringency pairing with modest bitterness to provide enough of a finish. Very nicely done.

Can. Opaque brownish orange with a good cm of white head. Aroma of apricot, passionfruit, herbal oranges, light bread. Starts moderately sweet and fruity with a texture that’s smooth without being vague. But a bit too much burning astringency creeps in at the end. Not bad.

Pint on tap at Club Rivers, Riverwood. Amber beer with a thin white head. High fine carbonation. Spicy peppery nose with faint hints of bubblegum and nettles. Good sequential lacing. Taste is bitter, refreshing, cleansing. Finish has a lingering herbal dankness that distracts from the refreshing aspects. Lemony but a bit too complex for a quaffer.
