473ml can. Pours a clear gold with a medium, fluffy, long lasting, white head that leaves thick curtains of lace. Aroma of pale malt, Belgian yeast, pear, red apple and floral hops. Sweet flavour of pale malt, candi sugar, honey, pear, lemon, Belgian yeast, bubble gum and spicy hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with a sticky, oily texture and average carbonation. A bit on the sweet side, but ABV is well hidden.

473ml can. Pours a clear amber gold with a medium, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Sweet aroma of bready caramel malt, tangerine and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of grainy caramel malt, grapefruit peel, orange, earth, pine resin and grassy hops in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with sticky, smooth texture and soft carbonation.
