Opaque, frothy head. Aroma is yeasty, little catty. Moderate bitterness. Bright floral, lychee, honeyish notes. My beloved citra isn't pure litterbox anymore 😢. I swear this time last year I would have said this is too yeasty, and now I'm just acclimated/resigned.

On tap at Darby's Gastown, pours an opaque bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out modest dank hops, plenty of yeast, and soft biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with plenty of dank, citrus hops, moderate yeast, and dry biscuity malt. Almost no bitterness on the finish. It's clean, especially for the style, but not especially drinkable.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Murky yellow-orange colour. Citrus fruit aroma, peach, mango. Lean body, the mouthfeel is only mildly chalky, delicate malt base, juicy hops, with orange juice, touch of tropical, passion fruit; low bitterness.
Next to the NarC Roberts, This one has more expressive hops and it's less dirty.

Taster at Alibi. Pours a cloudy blonde with a white head. Aroma is dirty with tropical fruits notes. Similar taste with a bit of dirt, pineapple, and slight toothpaste freshness. Kinda Boombox-style IPA, but less dirty. Good one.
