Poured from can dated BBD 30/03/22.
Pours a hazy straw yellow with a very light head that fadrs to a fine rim.
Very strange nose: bubblegum, pear and elderflower.
Palate is just as confusing and struggling to define it. There is a sweetness of elderflower, grape must and melon. Pleasantly hoppy and bitter to offset the sweetness. Complete abscence of malt flavours.
Medium mouthfeel and good carbonation.
I could finish it and it was quite refreshing but it just perplexed me the whole way.

Blind-tasted except for the beer's name and brewery/country, zero reviews below read (yet!)...
L- Straw, notably hazy, pours with 1Cm off-white head. p.s. the second half of the can poured with some chunks of sediment. The foam cap holds well...
S- Smells of grapefruit, pungently citrus. Not a good omen for my tastes.
T- It's not as face-puckering as I feared. It's certainly contemporary fruit/floral notes by the bucket, but it isn't one of those that's so OTT they make me involuntarily shudder. It also has a perfumed aspect to it.
F- As often when the flavour is this bright and contemporary, and yet the ABV a relatively light 5.0% then the feel seems to come over as akin to soda water, ie you taste the CO2, it feels thin, the absence of balancing malts is clear to notice,
O- I expect this is brewed with hops genetically modified to major on citrus notes. It's not as OTT as the smell suggested, but it's certainly contemporary. I can finish it but I wouldn't buy it again.
Review1945/scoring all done, now the reveal, I get to read the can lable to see what I missed! => Hops: Citra, Columbus, Mosaic, Simcoe. They forgot to add the 'TM' trade-mark symbol on the GMO Citra hops.

Canned in a big old tallboy crafty craft can and purchased from Timperley village Bargain Booze
Pours a mango chutney dip looking body with decent enough white head
Aroma is like a battery acid lemonade but tropical soda instead of lemonade
Flavour is very muted tropical juice and with the low carb and the hot weather just melts away to very little
