330ml bottle - an American-style wheat ale, made with an Australian hop, in a town in Spain. Gotta love free markets.

This beer pours a hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy bone-white head, which leaves some chunky splattered lace around the glass as it lazily sinks out of sight.

It smells of bready and doughy cereal malt, a bit of estery yeastiness, muddled domestic citrus rind, some indistinct earthy spiciness, and plain leafy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and crackery pale malt, some orange and lemon citrus peel, musty yeast, black pepper spice, some damp minerality, and more understated leafy, herbal, and grassy hoppiness.

The carbonation is adequate in its palate-pinging frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and more or less smooth, with the hop acerbity maybe taking things down a notch or so here. It finishes quite dry, the hops edging out the malt in the lingering void.

Overall - this is a pleasant enough iteration of a hoppy wheat beer, nice and crisp, and easy to put back. Sometimes good little surprises come from the strangest or most unexpected parts of the world. Great stuff!

From lalonajdelacerveza. In Teku glass. Playing Sentience An Android's Tale. Citrusy notes that could provide an interesting palate if it werent for the high carbonation that stands above all

Pours a hazy, golden-amber color, with a froth, one finger head to it.

Smells of sour papaya, lemon pulp with a hint of spicy cloves to it. Very refreshing and fruity on the nose, relying heavily on american hops, while not providing too much of an traditional spiciness with its typical banana profile.

Has a very smooth mouthfeel, while providing a truly refreshing , versatile body with skillfully integrated hops.

Tastes of luscious oranges, dry lemon peel and a blend of earthen and toffee malts, gently invited to the palate by a soft, lively carbonation. Offers a great, malt coated dryness during the finish, highlighting bitter citrus among a pleasant, soft yeast pillow.

Great smelling and tasting beer, relying heavily on the well integrated hops, pleasantly balanced by yeast and malts.
