L- Deep amber, very slight haze, pours with 2mm white head that forms lacing.
S- Tropical fruits, a rather sour lychee is prominent.
T- It's in the style of a hipster pale ale; quite bitter, with fruit notes. There's also something of a perfumed note in the finish.
F- Refreshing, dry. I can feel the lack of ABV% but the moderate fruity bitterness seems to do ok at masking that gap. Carbonation in the mouth is good.
O- Yesterday I had to 'sink' a Big Drop Lager after a few swigs, a rare thing for me find a beer undrinkable. I feared how this one would taste: It's much better. It does a good job for a 0.5% brew. It's not my style, I'm more into trad beers, but will find a more appreciative audience especially amongst younger folks.

Dark gold with very little head. Strong tropical, sweet aroma with tangerine notes. Strong bitter hit with only a hint of the sweetness from the nose. Prolonged aftertaste in which a little more of the orange flavour comes through, though bitterness still dominates. Moderately thin body but not remotely watery.

The colour is (very) pale gold, the liquid is clear. The finger thick head is compact; it sinks slowly down leaving no lacing.

The smell is hoppy with citric notes of lemon and lime. Some clean sweetness and hints of orange peel.

The taste is bitter, almost tart. Passing citric hops and notes of wood and fibreboard. Low body. The aftertaste is light with bitter hops, lemon juice and candy-like sweetness in the background. Weak finish with lemon/lime-candy.

The carbonation is medium strong; the small bubbles long-lived and sharp. The liquid is light, almost watery.

Not worty, but quite watery.
