"Hop aroma takes centre stage on this clear, vivid golden-yellow beer with a foamy head. Herbal, fruity, citrus, lemongrass and resinous aromas typical of the style precede a yellow fruit and orange palate, with bitterness balanced by a malt base and caramel hints, perhaps heavier than expected for the style but nonetheless refreshing. The finish is pleasantly dry and lightly astringent."

"Gold in colour with a slight haze and a well-retained foam. The nose is vibrant with ripe, freshly chopped mango, leading to a medium-bodied beer that highlights tropical fruits. The flavour is rich in orange and grapefruit, complemented by a refreshing, dry, and bittersweet finish. Good body and carbonation make for an easy-drinking experience."

"The beer is a pale gold color, hazy resembling tropical juice. It offers a pleasant bitterness and good balance. Subdued citrusy hops with hints of white garden fruit are complemented by a lean maltiness. The rounded bitterness is neither too mild nor overpowering, leading to a long-lasting aftertaste."
