Beautifully pale and equally sessionable, this 4.2% pale ale packs in heaps of fleshy tropical fruits and Citrus. Pineapple, mango and guava lead the aroma before opening up into a hit of zest & berry dankness. Pillowy white foam brings you back for another silky sip, supported by a body stuffed with oats and a lingering sweetness from the carapils.
Perfect collab for a Japanese Metalcore band, bringing refreshment to the pit, our friends from Tokyo, Crystal Lake

Milky, dirty blonde with crusty white film that clings; lemon balm, Creamsicle, and candied pineapple on the nose; sugared grapefruit, passionfruit, canary melon, peach, and a big dank hit; lt-med, only, creamy.

Looks the part: nose and top notes suggest a delicate herb and tart yellow fruit hop character that would suit the ABV.
So it’s a surprise when a giant slab of dank drops on you halfway through. No hop info (because WL doesn’t for collabs) but hits like the dirty side of Mosaic.
It’s a strange choice in a session strength but keeps it interesting, if a bit too sharp and lean.
OK, if less fun than it should be.
