Sample thanks to Grumbo. Pours a misty golden yellow, quite lively with a large white head receding quickly. Sweet nose with prominent dabinett, some mild honey. Taste is crisp with good dabinett definition, mead takes a backseat though some mild honey hints are present. Decent.

330ml can from Taps Beer Bar, Changkat, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy, light yellow straw colour with a round bubbly white head. The aroma is big pineapple. The flavour is moderate sweet and acidic, with a crisp, sweet and tart pineapple, light vanilla palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. Tasty if you like pineapple, but would become a little sickly very quickly.

Sensory Session #52: looks realy juicy, pale and almost no head. Aroma like a Sour Pina Colada. Sweet & pineapple. Taste follows the nose, but less sweeter than expected. Fruity, sugar pineapples and a nice soft carbonation which fits very well.
