473ml can. Murky, yellow-ish, bright golden colour with small to average, frothy, to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Relatively cautious, not overly intense, tropical and citrusy fruity, slightly grassy and "green" fruity, hoppy aroma, oaty and slightly wheaty malty background, rather unspecific and amalgamated fruitiness in a spectrum from mango via sweet pineapple, sweet white grapes and kiwi fruit to lemon and mandarine, none of them really explicit, weak spicy aspects of vanilla and cinnamon in the mix as well. Taste is likewise homogeneous citrusy and tropical fruity hoppy, a bit more explicit on the citrusy/lemon side, slightly wider spectrum including lime, sweet-ish, oaty malty basis, mild zesty bitterness and citric tartness, some "green", grassy aspects as well; well hidden alcohol.
Creamy-oily texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy palate, medium to fine, mildly prickly carbonation.
Well balanced, very mild, homogenous and harmonious, seemingly light - exquisite.

Very well crafted, superb balance, intense and meaty but simultaneously bridled and clean, seemingly light and simple bit highly sophisticated - pure excellence.

Pours a hazy, banana-gold, with mid-sized head. Aroma is fruity citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors follow, but with some astringency (this is one beer that smells better than it tastes, weird). Mouthfeel is a bit thin given the ABV. Moderate hop bitterness in the finish.

16 ounce can from brewery, courtesy of Matt S. Murky yellow gold pour is topped by a huge puffy white head. Fragrant tropical citrus aroma fills the room. Flavor is sharp, tropical fruits. Tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, white wine, dried apricots and more. Juicy, but with a boozy undertone. Lovely

Pours a hazy, orange-pineapple, with minimal head. Aroma has some dankness, along with citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors are citrus and tropical fruit, with a medium sweetness and just the slightest touch of alcohol. Soft, smooth mouthfeel. Mild hop bitterness through the finish. Amazing quad!

Can: Poured a pitch-black porter with a large brown foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of roasted malt notes with some black chocolate notes and dry bitter notes. Taste is also a mix of dry bitter notes of roasted malt malt with some chocolate notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable baltic porter.
