Birthday present in August 2023. Drunk in November of that year.
L: Slightly hazy, light golden yellow in colour. The head disappears quickly into a thin, bright white rim. Medium-sized bubbles stream up the glass.
S: Slightly yeasty, mild tropical fruit. No malt body detected.
T: Fruity notes, maybe guava, pineapple and even a touch of watermelon, but that yeasty note from the nose is there, almost like the fruit has fermented past its use-by date. The finish is quite soda-like and a little thin.
M: Carbonation is moderate, but on the swallow, it turns sherbety. The body is quite full despite the quick, thin finish.
O: This is definitely a beer for summer, preferably outside and preferably with company. There are no great mysteries in what is an approachable beer that will refresh as required.
Cheers!
