Can from the brewery. Pours a hazy golden colour with an off-white head and lots of foamy-creamy lace. Citrusy aromas with hints of coriander and caramel. The taste is pretty sweet with the nice citrus and some coriander hints again. A little too rich to be one to revisit.

Can sample at a tasting at troubles' place. Thanks troubles. Hazy golden, white head. Fruity, "green", weedy hops, tropical, citric, quite dry, light maltiness, moderately bitter. Very nice.

16oz can piked up one week ago at the brewery. Split 2 ways in Teku stemware. Lots of floats, 3 finger yellow-is head, golden color. lovely earthy pine cone smell with bits of ginger and grapefruit. Incredibly crisp, biting mouthfeel like biting into orange peel. Juicy, fresh, spritz like sparkling water. very tasty.

Hazy and a bit tan. Medium head. Bit deep earthy orange hops. There is a lot of citrusy hops. Good malt character. It's decent, nice balance, happy hops.

16 oz. can, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma reveals lots of dank hops, with light pine and biscuity malt. Flavour is full of dank, piney hops, with light herbal character and biscuity malt. Dry and dank, with a weed-like finish. Nice stuff.
