Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, decent fine minerally carbonation on the back end. Light smooth pale malts, a moderate creamy sweetness that works well enough here. Soft cooling pine into light but reasonably bright citrus and stone fruits. An undertone of Kiwi limw. Touch of tropical fruits. Light finish. A tidy and fairly drinkable dipa.
