From a 500ml can on 22/10/2021. Pours a murky golden with a medium head. Has a light tropical and citrus nose. Tastes of orange and mango an finishes with a medium bitterness with a good dash of tang. The mouthfeel is silky, the carbonation moderate. It won't change your life but it's very solid, nicely balanced and easy drinking.

From a 500ml can on 19/10/2021 (Abv listed as 7%, not 6.7%). Pours a murky dark golden with a medium head. Has some sharpish citrus fruit in the nose. Has fairly strong medium sweet citrus fruit on the sip, with a quite pronounced spicy, tangy finish. The mouthfeel is creamy, he carbonation moderate. A very solid effort but not typically oat cream in style, despite the creaminess!

From a 500ml can on 8/10/2020. Pours aclearcopper with a small to medium head. The nose is dominated by resin and pine with some citrus notes in the background. On the sip, there a big caramel and biscuit malt backbone, leading to some very sweet peach and orange. Has a big hoppy finish - lots of pine and resin, but more than enough to keep the initial sweetness in check. The mouthfeel is oily, the carbonation moderate. Very well done.

From a 500ml can on 6/10/2021. Pours a hazy golen with a medium head. Has a light tropical nose with some candied lolly in the mix. Tastes of pineapple and melon, with some orange and tangerine tang at the back. The palateis a touch slick and flabby, the carbonation moderate. Okay I guess, but a bit lacking in punch and definition for mine.

(Can) Pours cloudy straw colour with small white head. Nice aroma of citrus with pine notes. Great mouthfeel with medium body Pty and plenty of mouth filling carbonation. Great taste too, especially for a session ale (albeit a 4.4% ABV session ale). It’s nice and juicy citrusy from the start way into the palate when some restrained bitter notes join in. Easy drinking.

From a 500ml can on 23/9/2021. Pours a deep brown with a smallish head. The nose features chocolate and a bit of cocoa. Tastes of medium sweet chocolate with some caramel, followed by a modest roasty bitterness. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. A decent line and length porter, but not very Baltic in character tbh. Just okay and a long way from MC's best.

From a 500ml can on 21/9/2021. Pours a deep brown with a medium head. The nose is surprising muted - a hint of fruit and roastiness, but fridge than anything. Tastes of caramel, roasted malt and a bit of citrus, but again a bit muted, particularly for a beer this size. Finishes with a firmish hoppy bitterness, with a warming finish the only real hint of the 10 per cent. The palate is slick, the carbonation moderate. Unusually meh for a big MC.

From a 500ml can on 13/9/2021. Pours a murky golden with a biggish head. The nose is quite light and circumspect for a beer this size - a little light fruit notes and a hint of spice. Taste wise, it's much more direct. Lots of apricot, mango and honey up front, which is met by lots of tangy citrus in the middle, finishing with a slightly spicy warming bitterness. Pillowy mouthfeel with average carbonation. An excellent big NEIPA.

From a 500ml can on 18/8/2021. Pours a hazy dirty golden with a medium white head. Smells tropical with some green/herbal notes in the mix. Tastes only medium sweet with tropical fruit and some tart and almost sour berries holding sway at the back. Medium bitterness with a slightly spicy kick. The mouthfeel is almost thick, the carbonation moderate. Cant' say this did anything for me. Had this hop a few times now and have been consistently underwhelmed.
