5oz pour at YVR. Pours murky gold with a white head. Initial impression was a soapy cluster-fuck, but it got better so perhaps it was residual dishwasher fluid. Aroma has some berries and tropical fruit. Flavour is less pronounced; definitely driven by the berry and tropical fruit hop flavours, but fairly muddled. Not great, but less terrible than my initial impression.

Draught at Vancouver airport. Pours a clear gold with small white head that retains as a tight collar of small bubbles and dusting over portions of the top. Aroma is grainy and malt. Flavor is malt predominantly with slight citrus in the back. A bit of earth as it warmed.

On tap at Stanley Park in Tap house, YVR. Clear medium amber with a small short lived white head that leaves sparse lace. Nose is light caramel, pine, citrus, grass and some light floral notes. Flavour is a light+ butterscotch sweetness and a medium pine and grass bitterness. I wouldn't put it at 65 IBU. Mouth is slightly thin with average carbonation and a short lightly bitter finish. 7/3/7-/3-/13

Grapefruit hops. Clear gold with a decent white head. Bitter grapefruit peel and some pine with a bitter finish. Very old school.
