Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth but semi dry with decent fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth malts, a light creamy sweetness. The hops bring crisp pine and decent amount of reasonably bright citrus. Some citric peel provides a little depth. Solid dipa base but there is also a flinty aspect to this one and a slight tang. Neither of which is serious and which many may enjoy. For me it's a detracting distraction that takes the edge off. Overall decent but far from memorable.

On tap at CBC, Clerkenwell on 28th January 2022. Pale hazy amber with shallow whitish foam and full lacing. Zesty citrus peel aroma. Rich and intense citrus, spices and sweet grasses in-mouth. Bitter lemon finish. Full bodied with a zingy mouthfeel. Gorgeous!

750ml bottle thanks to bottle. It pours oily black with some floating chunks (pecans?) and a khaki head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, nutty, pecan pie, rich chocolate, gateaux, vanilla, cake frosting, toasted coconut and syrup. The taste is slick, oily, sticky, rich roasted malt, charred notes, burnt toast, praline, pecan pie, toffee, caramel, dark chocolate, chocolate cake, fruit cake, spice, umami, burnt toast and warming alcohol with a thick, sweet finish. Fulsome body, fine carbonation and oily mouth feel. A bit thick and sweet, but fun anyhow.

Totally different nose and taste. Bourbon, then coconut and chocolate up front, but herbalish and oily on The mouth

Can ordered from Twisted Crow, Basingstoke. Aroma is fruity with vanilla and boozy rum and cinnamon. Hazy neon orange. Bubbly white head primarily sticks to the rim. Tangy and fruity. There no missing the pineapple. Vanilla and cinnamon. A hint of booze. Medium bodied. Creamy. Flat carbonation. Long astringent finish. I like this. Yeah, could give thus to yer nan and she'd enjoy her boozy J2O but who cafes, it's nice stuff.
