Can from AH XL supermarket. Color: Clear golden, white head. Aroma: Fruity passionfruit, hoppy. Taste: Hoppy, notes of passionfruit and some citrus fruit, malty background. Moderate sweet and light to moderate bitterness. Medium body, just below average carbonation. Very nice Session IPA (according to the label) with quite long lasting finish.
