Craft Beer Junction bottle share, thanks to the team. Hazy yellow beer, good pale mango colour head. Lots of bits of something! Smooth palate, light, reasonable fine carbonation. Melted vanilla ice cream with touches of egg nog and tropical fruits. Airy finish. Off it's tits. Quite nice nonetheless, if you like melted ice cream. Good fun.
Thick and pulpy, creamy, sweet and quite boozy. Banana, pineapple and coconut. Feels unbalanced, the sharp booziness contrasted by the cloying sweetness distracts quite a bit here. Not bad though.
