440ml can. Hazy, orange, dark golden to amber colour with average to huge, dense, firm, frothy to creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Slightly zesty, citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, wheaty and oaty malty background, notes of orange, orange peel, some grapefruit, lemon, minimally funky, Kveik-like, yeasty fruity overtones. Taste is moderately bitter, zesty, citrusy fruity and slightly tropical fruity hoppy, notes of lemon, some grapefruit, orange, orange peel remain slightly un-integrated on top, tropical fruity undertones come around more mixed with a wheaty and oaty malty basis, some residual sweetness, and Kveik-like, minimally tart-ish, funky, fruity yeasty aspects; mildly bitter, zesty, minimally waxy finish.
Minimally oily, watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium, scattered, mildly prickly carbonation.
A bit inhomogeneous, fairly hoppy, some nice, "dirty", yeasty aspects, quite some character of its own - not bad.

Keg at Vinny & Ted, Beaconsfield old town, 13/09/2025.
Almost clear golden orange with an off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is lemon rind, damp cloth, lime zest, straw, hedgerow.
Taste comprises light funk, grass, lemon rind, herb, hay bale.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light puckering rasp.
Tidy enough refresher.
