Can from Tavour. Pours hazy gold with a moderate white head that laced down. Aroma is juicy tropical - to include mango. Med body. Juicy but not sweet. Moderately bitter. Not dry but ... Flavor is mango, citrus, pine and likely more. Flavor approaches intense. Too bad it only approaches, because the flavor is very nice.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear, light bright gold with a moderate white head. Aroma is bready with grass/spice and a citrus note. Arguably med body. LIght bready, but dry. Mildly bitter, but pleasingly so. Flavor matches the aroma. Nice.

16oz can from Tavour. Clear golden pour, ample white foamy head, clumps of lacing. Bready, biscuity aroma. Taste follows with solid bready pale malts, thick and creamy, with a nice bitter bite taking behind to finish it. I feel it is more on the pale lager side, but I guess enough of a bitter finish to make this a pils.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear pale gold with a moderate, transient white head. Aroma is complex but seems to include melon, citrus and pineapple. Med body. Dry. Very hoppy with mild bready support. Flavor is consistent with the aroma. Nice brew.

16oz can from Tavour. Dark, ruddy brown pour, beige head which recedes to thin ring. Aroma features a nice blend of roast malts and chocolate. Taste follows with some sweet chocolate flavors right up front, light toasty bitterness behind. Some bitterness lingers. Tasty little number!
