500ml can. Murky golden orange with a white head, well retained. Aroma of ripe guava, mango, grapefruit, lime, dank, vinous. Taste of ripe exotic fruits, guava, mango, zesty lime, grapefruit, some gooseberry and white wine notes, a bit dank too, alcohol remarkably well hidden with just a light boozy warmth at the end. Full bodied, smooth. Excellent TIPA.

500ml can. Hazy yellow with a thin white head, disappearing fast. Aroma of mango, mandarin, stone fruits. Taste is citrusy, mandarin, peach, tropical, mango, low bitterness. Light-medium body.
Another fantastic AF beer with WCBF, but once again not quite hitting the highs of WCBF's own beers.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, a little dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light pale malts, a light creamy sweetness. Hops bring crisp pine and a little hop spice. Pretty good Galaxy broad spectrum hop fruits, bright and crisp. Motueka comes through, just, on the back end with modest like. Crisp finish. Very solid dipa, never quite wowed me but, there nothing here to criticise.

500ml can at Tรธnne, Leicester. Light to mid-gold, clear with a tiny film of white head. Aroma, hmmmm. Definitely getting lemon and coriander, touches of loose white tea. Light spur fruity taste, more lemon zest. Light salt. Something vaguely sweet/savoury. Coriander? Some tartness in the finish. Light body with light to medium carbonation. Unusual in the best way.
