Intro: A 440ml can, canned on 20th November 2018 and with a best before date of 22nd May 2019. Poured into a Lost Abbey teku glass.
Appearance: A hazy orange colour with a one finger white head that had pretty good retention and left some nice sticky lacing.
Aroma: Apricot, yoghurt, milk candy and citrus rind.
Taste: Sweet, tropical fruit, apricot, pineapple, lactose, milk candy, slight bitterness, citrus rind.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: Fruity milk candy sweetness was perhaps a bit too sweet for me. The light bitterness wasn’t enough to fully balance it out.

Intro: A 330ml bottle with a best before date of 14th September 2017. Poured into a Lost Abbey teku glass.
Appearance: A nice hazy golden orange colour with a just under two finger fluffy white head that pretty good retention and lots of nice sticky lacing.
Aroma: Starts tropical with apricot, peach, mango followed by some citrusy grapefruit and mandarin with hints of pine, straw and grass. It’s nice albeit a bit weak.
Taste: Sweet malt, peach, mango, grass with a short lasting grapefruit bitter finish.
Mouthfeel: Light bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: Aroma and taste were actually good, but it would have been better if the aromas were stronger and the finishing taste was longer lasting rather than its current abrupt end.

Intro: A 330ml bottle, batch 038, with a best before date of 29th May 2017. Poured into a Lost Abbey teku glass.
Appearance: A very nice hazy golden straw yellow colour with a one finger white head that dissipated quickly but left nice lacing.
Aroma: Pineapple, unripe mango, grapefruit, pine and grass.
Taste: Sweet pineapple and candied orange followed by bitter grapefruit, orange peel and pine. Long and lingering bitterness on the finish.
Mouthfeel: Dry, medium bodied with moderate carbonation and hints of alcohol.
Overall: This was pretty good, but I’m not so sure about the sweetness, and I was definitely getting some alcohol here and there which wasn’t ideal.
