473ml can. Pours a clear gold orange with a small, foamy, short lived, off-white head that leaves curtains of lace. Mild aroma of grainy wheat malt, mango, orange peel and black tea. Sweet fruity flavour of grainy wheat malt, lactose, mango, strawberry, black tea and floral hops in a crisp, dry, mild bitter finish. Light body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Refreshing and fun to quaff.

473 ml can. Pours a dull cloudy amber with lighting head. Light aromas of wheat, salt, cereal, and possibly coriander. Flavors aren’t really up front, but with some thought there is some salty wheat and umami.

On tap at Russell, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out subtle tea notes, a hint of mango, and very faint bergamot. Flavour is weak, with very subtle mango, some bergamot and biscuity malt. Useless beer.

On tap at Russell, pours a cloudy bright golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out briny notes, light salt, citrus and a bit of boozy cocktail-like notes in poor cohesion. Flavour is salty and citric, with lots of briny notes, boozy cocktail-like notes, and lacto. It's like salty, vodka-infused lacto. Not horrible but not good.
