Bottle - Pale malts and some fresh citrus. Clear gold with a decent white head. Sweet orange, light spruce and a clean finish. Spruce is a bit too subtle, but beer is OK.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Amber color, hazy. The aroma is a bit biscuity. The flavor is also biscuity, a bit resiny, then a nasty pithy bitterness comes in.
Quite undrinkable.

On tap at Postmark, pours a hazy golden orange with a medium white head. Nose certainly brings out the spruce tip upfront, with lots of woody tree bark. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of woody spruce and a subtle hint of caramel sweetness. Actually not all that bad. Decently balanced and pleasant to drink. Nothing exciting but well-made.
