330ml can via Beer52, poured into my IPA tasting glass late on 30th April 2026, at home. Clean and clear pale golden body, white crust on top. Grassy nose and initial taste with citrus fruits trying to burst out but failing, all a bit bland and boring compared to it's brother Blueprint Alpha which I had right before this.

330ml can from Beer52, poured into my IPA tasting glass at home late on 30th April 2026. Light haze in the pale golden body, snow white crown on top. Lemon and Lime, plus other citrus fruits in the nose and taste, not any sweet citrus fruits though. Dry bittering finish.

(Can) Pours clear pale straw with small white head. Subtle aroma of grain with hints of candy. Light body with good carbonation. Taste is rather thin and watery. Pleasant citrus up front. Bread notes. But falls flat at the end. Refreshing and easy drinking but very uninteresting.

(Bottle) Slightly hazy amber with no head. Gentle citrus aroma. Light body with good carbonation. Thin taste but pleasant - citrus start with gentle hoppy finish. Very acceptable for zero alcohol.

(Can) Pours clear golden with good white head. Nice aroma - citrus with herbal hints. Medium body with plenty of fine bright carbonation. Taste is a nice balance and evolution from som crisp citrus notes to herbal hoppy bitterness in the finish. Dry nice.

[33cl can at a restaurant in Wangamata.] Remarkably similar to the Sawmill Hazy IPA I had yesterday, showing just how much non-alcoholic beer has come along recently, The main differences being less head retention, and a slightly more watery mouth feel. Otherwise a tasty pale ale with lots of tropical fruit and a gentle bitterness.
