473ml can. Pours a clear gold with a small, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Aroma of biscuity pale malt, grapefruit, mango, wood and piney hops. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, grapefruit peel, cantaloupe, earth, wood and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Juicy and tasty. A solid westy.

473 ml can. Pours a dark brown with full head. Aromas of nutty chocolate, thin black coffee and roasted malts. Flavor of same with additional postage stamp. Coffee beers need to be bolder and on a bigger base IMHO.
