Hazed, orange colour - looking like mango juice, but not as thick. A bubbly yellowish head, average stay, with no lacing left. A nice blend of the mangos and guavas in the nose, with a touch of sourness. The sour continues into the taste, but does not linger too, too long. A wet mouthfeel with a short finish. Maybe a tad tart, but not much. Again, not too thick in the mouth, so more of the fruit juices, than purée. A really easy-to-drink, refreshing sour beer with both fruits.

Hazy, golden-orange colour with a creamy, warm-white head, good retention and creamy-foamy lacing. Nectarine, mango fruitiness in the nose with a touch of citrus, hints of white wine and dank, funk. A silky-smooth, lightly creamy mouthfeel with a mild dryness in the finish. A little more citrusy in the mouth, over the peach, nectarine, mango and white grapes. A tad boozy, with building bitterness. Quite a good, juicy Double NEIPA from two breweries I like.

Can. Hazy orange gold beer, a decent bubbly pale cream colour head but, it doesn't last. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light pale malts, a thin creamy sweetness, a little natural grain. Nelson and Riwaka hops bring light cooling pine. Mild savoury hop and an even milder bitterness. A decent amount of Nelson grape and mild Riwaka exotics. Light and semi dry finish. It's fine but, so much competition with DIPAs these days, this is a little behind the curve.
