Intro: A 440ml can, canned on 7th June 2021, and a best before date of 7th December 2021. Poured into a Holy Mountain tulip glass.
Appearance: A hazy darkish orange colour with a two finger white head that had good retention and left lots of nice lacing.

Taste: Moderately sweet, papaya, melon, with notes of citrus rind and grapefruit zest for a lightly bitter finish.

Overall: A bit too sweet for me. The bitterness helps, but not enough. There was nice fruit throughout though and the alcohol is well hidden.
