Golden orange near clear pour with one finger of white head.
Muted aroma - fruity - citrus - orange, pineapple, hint of piney dankness flirts in back.
Taste starts with caramel malt sweetness followed by indistinct tropical fruit and touch of piney hop.
Medium mouth feel - smooth, easy drinking, finishes with fruit sweetness. Decent.

473ml can - what the hell are they talking about here? Sliding down a hill/mountain in yer shoes? Also, made with some weird Norwegian yeast.
This beer pours a clear, medium golden yellow colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some decent defrosting back windshield pattern lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of bready and doughy cereal malt, some orange, red grapefruit, and lemon citrus rind, a further indistinct tropical fruitiness, and some mild leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy caramel malt, wet rye crackers, mixed domestic citrus peel, a damp minerality, and more understated earthy, herbal, and piney hoppiness.
The carbonation is quite tame in its milquetoast frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and generally smooth, with a wee airy creaminess evolving as things warm up a bit at this particular juncture. It finishes off-dry, the malt and mixed frooty esters presiding.
Overall - this is an interesting stab at the style, one that maintains the citrus and greenery, but almost totally sheds any sense of bitterness. And with no sign of the 16-proof wowee sauce quotient, it is patently easy to put back. I could mention the inexpensive shelf tag, but I think I've already made the sale, right?
