Can from Great Grog. Hazy amber body with a thin off-white film. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of caramel and earth. Flavour of pear, melon rind and tea. Thin body with a watery texture. Soft fizz. Not much to see here. The can design is much better than the beer itself.

Keg @ Piccadilly Tap, Manchester. Yellow-blonde with a small head. Hoppy ale, but the mango is well stated amongst this. Has a more general citrus aroma.

Keg @ Font, Manchester. Light golden with a small head. Has some gentle passion fruits with mango too, all of which are dominant over any lager character it has. Has plenty of nose too.

440ml can. Pours hazy straw colour with a huge frothy white head, good retention once it settles. Aroma: citrus and grapefruit, passionfruit, zest. Taste: grapefruit, citrus, zesty, lemon, passionfruit, moderate pithy bitterness. Body is light-medium, soft carbonation, oily texture, probably the thinnest NEIPA Iโ€™ve had actually. Not bad but this style has been executed so much better by many other brewers.
Also itโ€™s spelled โ€™murkyโ€™, boys.

440ml can. Clear golden colour with a white head. Huge mango and pineapple notes in the aroma, candied/sugary. Taste pretty much just mango and pineapple, quite sweet and very much like fruit juice, just a hint of pithy bitterness in the finish. Light body with carbonation on the heavy side. Nice beer, certainly sessionable if you like sweet tropical fruit juice - one was enough for me.

440ml can. Pours clear amber with an off-white head. Aroma: fruity, floral, malty, orange. Taste: mirroring the aroma, fruity, orange, floral, and a decent malt backbone as they claim, some caramel and pine, citric bitter finish. Medium body, average carbonation. Interesting IPA.

Can. Beer Central, Sheffield. Pale, dirty gold. Soft haze. Frothy, messy, off white head. Nose has the mango and pineapple up front. Smells like a packaged smoothie, mostly. Not much in the way of hop presence. Some sweet grain in the background. Taste is sticky, breakfast juice sweet, with moderate, citrus rind bitterness. Nice on the palate, feeling bright, fruity and soft. Gets more pithy bitter as it goes along.
