Pours hazy amber with a very thin layer of foam. Aroma shows ripe tropical fruit – mango and pineapple – with a touch of spice and the faintest hint of banana. Flavor leans heavy and sweet, with notes of honey alongside layered tropical fruit: mango, grapefruit, and passion fruit. The first sip is soft and slightly creamy, giving the beer a smooth entry, though the lack of bitterness leaves the sweetness somewhat unchecked. Mouthfeel is medium to full, adding weight to the experience.

330ml can. Murky, orange, golden to amber colour with average, firm, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Piney, resinous and slightly citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, wheaty malty background, further "non-hoppy" fruitiness, notes of pine and orange, hints of cherry, cherry yoghurt, "Fritt Kirsche". Taste is mildly bitter, piney and slightly citrusy fruity hoppy, wheaty malty basis, some further floral fruitiness, diluted hints of cherry, cherry yoghurt, "Fritt Kirsche", some orange and pine, weak floral bitterness; decrease of citrus flavours and fading of the malt base in the finish, the cherry note remains constant.
Watery texture, smooth and minimally dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation.
Citrus and cherry flavours remain widely divided, find together only in the middle part to form a rather homogeneous fruitiness; nice cherry touch throughout, quite light and watery overall - OK.
