From a 440ml can on 16/12/2019. Pours a clear medium golden with a small to medium head. Has quite a sharp fruity hop aroma. On the sip, there's some sweet malt up front with some sharp citrus kicking in at the back. Has a slight vinous, yeasty character to it, giving it the farmhouse character. Just okay and does not inspire a revisit.

From a 440ml can on 23/11/2019. Pours a curiously clear light golden with a small head. Has a quite a strong fruit salad nose. Starts out super sweet with lots of tropical and stone fruit (passionfruit, pineapple and peach) and just keeps on going. For something that's quadruple hopped, there's little in the way of bitterness. The mouthfeel is slightly syrupy and the carbonation moderate. All up a bit cloying, unbalanced and lacking in punch, which is hard to forgive at 8.5%. Disappointing.

From a 440ml can on 26/10/2019. Pours a murky light golden with a small head. The nose is dank and tropical. Tastes of pineapple, mango and passionfruit - medium sweet, with a slightly sharp, tart and reasonably assertive bitterness, with some pith at the back. Medium bodied, with a chalky palate, and spritzy carbonation. A little rough around the edges, but pretty good.

Pot on tap at The Catfish, Fitzroy. Amber beer with a thin white head. High carbonation. Grassy, herbal, earthy nose, a touch of malt. Good lacing. Full bodied and viscous, sharp carbonation. Cleansing then there's a grassy herbal finish with late liquorice and mint. It's a great, complex beer. One to sip and contemplate.

More of a session ale than a hazy. Lots of refreshing hops but not much body. Disappointing.

That be black. And boozy. With vanilla notes. And fancy chocolate nibs cation. In my mouth it is luscious. All cuddly and friendly. Drink this, but not mine.

Nods to London and Pirate Life in the can design, but it turns out to be a second label for Hargreaves Hill. Can. Gold with a white head. Aroma of honeydew melon, mandarin, grass, hay, some pineapple. Light bodied. Perhaps slightly more tropically focussed than expected from the aroma. Dryish with a slight earthy note. Solid hoppy quaffer.

Bottle. Clear gold with a white head that lasts very well. Aroma of pineapple, pine, bitter oranges. You expect it to be resinous but the body is lean and very clean and the hops are pungent but not very bitter, so it all floats above a focused malt. I guess that vindicates their approach.
