Can. A light haze on this magenta beer, good pale mauve head but, fairly short lived. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth malts, can't really taste them that much, but they are more than sweet enough to stop this being acid. The various elements of this one are quite remarkably well blended. All 4 have a voice, none of the 4 dominate and it turns out that Lavender, Honey, Blueberry and Lemon are happy bedfellows. Light piney crisp finish. More of a pasty sour really and one I could drink a whole can of. That's a lot for me!
