Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Soft pale malts, a forward creamy sweetness. Soft pine, good semi ripe citrus, orange, tangerine and mandarin. Mild hop spice. Doesn't have the richness of classic Citra mango and pink grapefruit but enjoying this nonetheless.

Draft at the Blind Tiger, Peterborough. The colour and texture of a banana milkshake. Plenty of vanilla and a hint of coffee. Weird mash up but what would you expect from a Milkshake White Stout.

Can ordered from the brewery. Dark Opaque-hazy gold. Thick fluffy foamy white head. Aroma has sweet fruit and floral notes. A sour edge. The flavour then twists the sourness up to 11. Vinous but fruity. Passionfruit. Underlying sugary sweetness. Full of fruit. Floral elements from the camomile. Light-medium bodied. Slick..Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. The issue here is that I am not a passionfruit fan so a pumped up Passionfruit fruit Sour IPA doesn't donit for me but I suspect that a passionfruit (and sour).fan would appreciate this beer.

Can bought at FarFarOut, Southsea. A Pale.hazy gold..Thick foamy somewhat translucent white head. The aroma is sweet and fruity with a citrus streak and bitter woody periphery. The flave is similar. Initial sweet juicy fruit, with a sugary streak. Citrus. An underlying bitterness which is more prominent into the finish. Slightly watery element. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Decent low ABV other than a tad watered down side to it.

500ml can. Murky golden, big white head. Aroma of candied tropical fruits, mango, guava, papaya. Taste is sweet, tropical, guava, papaya, lychee, mango, peach, almost no bitterness to counter all that sweetness. Full bodied, creamy, smooth. This is really good, delicious in fact, but my word the sweetness... I don't know what they changed but none of the single hop ones had this issue, if it weren't so sweet this would easily be a 9/10.
