Jungle of Love Vol. II
Cameron's Brewing Co.

At my lady Pamela's house; canned and chilled, from my favourite LCBO at The Roundhouse Centre in nearby Windsor. My seventh beer from the Oakville, ON brewery.

473 mL can from the LCBO; coded Mar 14 2023 and served slightly chilled.

Pours turbid orange with a pinkish hue, producing two fingers of fluffy, foamy white head that wilts within five minutes' time. A creamy collar and frothy cap live on, with a tight ring of even lace clinging tenaciously to the glass - looks really nice so far. Pink guava, orange juice, bubblegum and bready wheat on the nose, with subtle armpit funk and a faint strawberry-kiwi vibe.

It's a tasty little fruit sour, with the pink guava specifically being the star of the show. Bready, wheaty malt sweetness plays a supporting role, with juicy orange and citric sourness developing by mid-sip; moderately tart, with some light lactic funkiness on the back end. Guava lingers into the aftertaste, fading a few moments later. Medium in body, with low carbonation and a juicy mouthfeel - this works fairly well with the guava theme, but the end result feels a little limp and not all that refreshing.

Final Grade: 3.79, a B+. I would recommend Cameron's Jungle of Love Vol. II to any beer geek seeking out a guava sour, though I wouldn't necessarily hold it up as a superlative example. I enjoyed this more than Volume I, but my verdict is ultimately the same: while this is good enough to drink again, we're talking like a couple of times per summer. Then again, this is presumably a one-time seasonal, so re-drinkability is not really a major concern - I await the arrival of Volume III.
