On-draught @ the brewery:

Fruit syrup. Thick puree. Alcohol warmth.

More redolent of an alcoholic fruit smoothie than a beer. Not sure what anyone sees in this, but it's far from any good.

This is a liquid Frosty Fruit ice block. Ridiculously juicy on the nose - tropical with orange, pineapple, mango, passionfruit. Can smell it a meter away, and it's super syrupy and sweet.
Pours an opaque mango colour, with a thick syrup consistency. Minimum head.
Starts with a hint of sourness, and a big tangerine juice hit, before the other tropical flavours come out in combination - tropical juice like on the nose but not too easy to define like on the nose. Just a syrupy sweet concoction. Sweet middle with a spicy hoppy finish, and syrup aftertaste.
Thick mouthfeel, very foamy to chew, fizz like a tingle, slightly nettle on the back of the throat. Luxurious mouthfeel, but a touch rich - not sessionable, but a decadent treat.
Ok, so yes, it's a weird flavoured beer. A delicious fruity treat none the less and an absolute flavour bomb. They nail the Frosty Fruit flavour.
