Intro: A 1 pint can, with an illegible canned on date, poured into a winebar glass.
Appearance: It was a hazy milky yellow colour, with a one finger white head that had good retention and left lots of nice lacing.
Aroma: Tropical and citrus juiciness, mango, papaya, orange zest and rind, with a light biscuit backend.
Taste: Lightly sweet, candied grapefruit, pineapple, papaya, grass, and a citrus zesty bitter finish.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, medium bodied with light to moderate carbonation.
Overall: Very smooth and drinks easy with good tropical and citrus fruity aromas and flavours.
