16 oz. can, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of resinous and piney hops upfront, with biscuity malt and cereal malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with fresh piney and resinous hops, some oranges, and cerealy biscuity malt. Piney and resinous with a great depth. Excellent.

Not really murky, more like hazy/cloudy with lots of floaties. Nice fruity aroma, peach, plums, similar flavour, moderately sweet, with low bitterness.
Very good.

Having this one after another hop monster, it seems to show a stronger malt base, bready, chewy, with light caramel trace. The hopping is moderately juicy, lightly dank, not very bright, and this is unexpected, very different from the glass I had yesterday.

Cloudy to murky, blond with a shade of orange. Superdank aroma, durian, mango, light guava. Good body strength, powerful pale malt base, light residual sweetness, the hop character is very dank, quite strong bitterness too, with nice citrus peel in the finish. Some pithy bitterness in the finish.
Extreme, bold, excellent.

Taster at the Twin Sails brewery. Pours a hazy dirty golden with a white head. Aroma is very dirty with meaty notes. Not really pleasant, but it happened to Boombox beers before too. Similar taste with the same meaty notes and tropical fruits as well. It's ok, but this is definitely not my taste profile.

Draught, Darby's Gastown. Vibrant colour, nice opacity, thin head. Really looks nice. Aroma has both fruity and spicy elements, along with a generous pale malt note. On the palate, this has nice bitterness, abundant clean pale malt. Hops are moderately bright, with some grapefruit and orange notes. Well-balanced. Excellent.
