473ml can. Pours a cloudy gold yellow with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves sticky curtains of soapy lace. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, tangerine zest, peach, clementine orange and lychee. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, tangerine, fuzzy peach candy, guava, pineapple, mango, lychee, honeydew melon and clementine orange in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture and soft carbonation. Juicy and abv is well hidden making this dangerously drinkable.

473ml can. Pours a clear gold with a small, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves thick, soapy curtains of lace. Aroma of grainy pale malt, grapefruit and weedy hops. Sweet fruity flavour of caramel malt, grapefruit, pineapple, peach, grass and piney hops in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Light body with a slick texture and average carbonation. Crushable, but drinks much bigger than the abv would suggest.

Pours a clear gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Fruity aroma of pale malt, grapefruit, apricot and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of pale malt, tangerine, honeydew melon and piney hops in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Could use more bitterness. Just ok. Their hazies are much better.

Closer to a smoothie than the candy, but it's juicy and fun stuff.

Poured from the tap @ The Drake. Murky pale yellow with small white head. Chalky yeast with feint coconut and pineapple. The fruitiness is nice, but ruined by the yeast soup.
