Can. Pours slightly hazy darkish straw with airy white head. Clear aroma of hops and citrus, with touches of spruce and malt. Bitter, hoppy and piney flavour with notes of citrus and sweetish touches of malt, fruit and yeast. Bitter and citric aftertaste with fruity touches. A nice one.

Can, 7.1%. Good fruity and juicy aroma with notes of grapefruit. Hazy dark golden colour. Fizzy and unstable white head. The flavour starts off surprisingly bitter with notes of grapefruit. Also a little sweeter than expected with some acid to balance. Rather in-your-face, but clean and nicely flavourful.

Garçon DOES mean boy, only in modern parlance does it mean waiter. A hazy paler golden coloured and noticeably carbonated brew. It has initial tropical tasting American hops, which relent to produce a full-on pine aftertaste that lingers with a small dryness.

Panda thanks to Cloin. A light haze on this gold beer, small and short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Slightly thin palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Thin malt mouthfeel, sweet enough, a little too sweet for me. Cooling pine into perfumey candy fruits. Touch of Nelson, if you are looking for it. Soft and somewhat ripe citrus. Smooth finish. Overall too sweet in my book.

Panda thanks to Cloin. A light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, a modest creamy sweetness. Sabro coconut and mildly ripe pineapple dominate the hops. Cooling pine of course. Mild citrus, reasonably bright but fairly watery. A light finish. Nicely Sabro but a bit thin and watery overall.
Tropical fruity with a smoothie style body.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Just a light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth pale malts, a forward creamy sweetness. Good cooling pine. Big candy fruits, getting a little perfumey. Mild stone fruits. Light and semi dry finish. Sweet but drinkable.

Panda thanks to Cloin. A pretty modest haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, decent fine minerally carbonation. Soft smooth pale malts, a light but forward creamy sweetness. Dominant modern Mosaic candy fruits, sweet and a little juicy. Strata provides a mild fruity back drop. Light semi dry finish. Quite the candy job but goes down well
