Can from Micro Beer Crate, online, 2 months past BBE. Pours a hazy light orange with big white foamy head which thankfully recedes quickly to a nice layer with good lacing. Aroma of peach, apricot, grass, light caramel. Taste of citrus and stone fruit medley, caramel, zesty and grassy bitter finish. Moderate dryness in mine. Pillowy mouthfeel, soft although slightly frothy carbonation. Nice.

On tap at The Green Goddess, Blackheath Royal Standard. Cloudy gold pour with a white head. Definitely a minty lime nose (as per the blurb), whack of grapefruit, mango. Certainly has a similar approach in the taste, light minty backnote- quite subtle. Fresh citrusy hoppy finish. Interesting.

Can 44 cl. Pours a thick and pulpy orangey with absolutely no head. Looks lika a mix between carrot and mango juice. Intense fruit smoothie aroma with mango and passion fruit standing out - and then salt! It IS a gose base after all. Very late comes a hint of coconut. A salty, tropical fruit juice is what it is. A very strange bird indeed. 061223
