440ml can from Monster and Beer, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a hazy golden colour with a short-lived fizzy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, a little toffee caramel, light stone fruits. The flavour is moderate to light bitter and sweet, with a fresh, slightly smooth, fruity, light mineral, light citrus, light dry hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. Surprisingly light all around given the ABV. Nice, but needs a few more bittering hops and I’m not entirely sure about the Cashmere either.

330ml can from Monster and Beer, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a slightly hazy medium gold colour, with a mostly lasting frothy white head and lots of bubbles. The aroma is malt, tropical citrus fruit hops. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a light, slightly watery, fresh, crisp, peachy citrus, light dry pepper spice, light hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average to lively carbonation. Plenty going on given the low ABV.

440ml can from Monster and Beer, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a hazy golden orange colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, light tropical citrus, stone fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a fresh, crisp, juicy citrus, light piney, light pepper spice, light floral, dry hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Very drinkable but a few more bittering hops would have improved it for me.

Can, bb 10/20. Opaque dirty orange with a inch of white head - not ugly as these things go. Aroma of orange, lime, some mango, pine. Somewhat sludgy texture 3- with moderate carbonation. Fairly sweet with lots of orange and some tropical fruit - mango, pineapple. Medium high bitterness. Fair enough.

Not quite clear amber with a cm of white head that lasts OK. Aroma of kumquat, lemon, honeyed biscuit, pine. And that's pretty much how it tastes - maybe there are some tropical fruit notes in there too. Quite sweet and honeyed with resin building towards the fairly bitter end. Non-committal rather than balanced.

(Can) Pours clear golden with small white head. Nice aroma - pine, citrus. Medium body with good carbonation. Taste is a little thin but starts with some refreshing fruity notes, this is joined by some subtle biscuit malt, and finishes with some pleasant hoppy bitterness. Easy drinking and satisfying.

(Can) Pours clear golden with loose white head. Pleasant aroma - pine with notes of pepper and citrus. Medium body with excellent carbonation. Taste is hops from start to finish but with just moderate bitterness. There’s a little citrus tang in the start and some gentle sweetness in the mid palate. And there’s a pepper note. Very nice.
