Keg at CBJ. Near opaque orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Somewhat thin bodied pale malts, a reasonable sweetness. Cooling pine. Light bright citrus, orange and a little mandarin. Light and semi dry finish. Not bad.

Keg at Craft Beer Junction. Pale hazy pineapple yellow. Thin foamy white head. Aroma is funky and herbal with some citrus. Flavourwise it has initial citrus with a hint of sweetness followed by herbal and slightly resinous bitterness. Light-medium bodied. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish.
