473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy gold yellow with a medium, frothy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Dank, fruity aroma of pale malt, mandarin orange, peach, mango, mint and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of pale malt, blueberry, peach, mango, pineapple, cantaloupe and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Juicy and easy to drink.

473 ml can. Pours a very dull gold with moderate head. Aromas of lemon, melons, generally dank hops and light wheaty malts. Flavor of melons, grass, pine, bitter lemon, lupulin powder, and sharp wheaty malts. Harsh.

Slight haze. Thin head. That aroma brings tears to my eyesโฆfucking onion city. Hop burn, too. Like they were tasked with making a prime exemplar of everything thatโs wrong with hazy IPA. Clinical. The best part is reading after the fact that it's supposed to be a west coast IPA. Like...have you ever had a WC IPA before?

On tap at Threefold. Pours hazy blonde with a white head. Lots of pine, resin, and some tropical fruit notes on the nose. Flavour has crisp pine, dry allium, citrus peels, and a clean cracker malt base. Great, vibrant hop expression. Fantastic.

On tap at The Magnet, pours a hazy pale golden with a small white head. Aroma has some dank, melony hops, light pine, and a touch of allium. Flavour is assertively hopped, with lots of bitter piney hops, melon, citrus peel, gentle dankness, and a crisp biscuity malt base. Piney hop bitterness and just enough tropical character on the finish. Excellent.
