Beer via my subscription. Aroma has sweet stone fruit and coconut. A hint of citrus sourness. Hazy pale orange. Foamy white head. Medium bitter. Resinous. Citrus bitterness. Peripheral pineapple and coconut sweetness. Medium bodied. Slick verging on oily. Flat-average carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Refreshing crisp NEIPA... even the Sabro isn't too distracting.

440ml can. Hazy golden, white head. Aroma of grapefruit, mango, pineapple. Taste is very fruity, grapefruit, pineapple, mango, Sabro's coconut is very subtle here, and it finishes with some very pithy citrus giving a nice bitter bite. Another excellent NEIPA from FS.

440ml can. Clear golden, white head. Aroma of pine, resin, citrus fruits and peel. Taste is very piney and resinous, herbal and dank notes, citrus peel, orange, a touch of caramel, strong bitter finish. That's a great westie, but I will say the carbonation is too much - it's *very* fizzy.

Sweet stone fruit, followed by a more marmalade element. Sherbert. Medium bodied. Verging on oily. Soft-average carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish.

Can thanks to my bro. It pours ever so slightly hazy orangey - amber with a medium fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, sappy, oily, resinous, pine needles, orange marmalade, tangerine, peachy and gummy bears. The taste is slick, oily, sappy, resinous, green, weedy, dank, herbal, aniseed notes, touch of spice, pine needles, toothy, tannin, orange marmalade, toffee and some alcohol kick with a drying, sappy finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Decent.
