Okay clear yellow and some soft foam. Very soft rotten cabbage aroma with hints of dirty armpit. Flavour is lemon juice dumped on top of said dirty armpit. Everything else about this is bad. Big miss here.

Poured from 473mL can (ABV listed at 6.8%; compared at same time with Centennial single hop). Hazy pale golden yellow with dissipating white head. Mild dank tropical hops with a piney finish.

On tap at Parkside, pours a cloudy bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out a nice mix of piney hops, some herbal notes, a touch of tropical fruits and dry biscuity malt. Flavour is very piney, with a lovely robust piney hop character upfront, a touch of pithy tropical fruits and crisp biscuity malt. Love the use of Galaxy here - piney goodness. Excellent.

Taster at the brewery. Pours a dirty murky pale golden with a white head. Aroma is quite pleasant with tropical fruits and biscuity malt notes. Similar taste, but again with some dusty notes in the beginning of aftertaste. However, after aftertaste is better with tropical fruits notes. This one is the best beer I've tried from them so far and the only taster of which I could finish.

Opaque, with a thick, frothy head. Pomelo and lychee galaxy nose. Bitter, deep pine needle bitterness...seems unusual for galaxy but I like it. Just a touch of sweetness from the malts.

Draught at the brewery
Murky yellow color. The aroma Is fruity and a bit dank. The mouthfeel is a bit too chalky, but the malt base is crisp and crackery, the bitterness is there, it's resiny, a bit piney, dank, dirty but good.

Draft - Weedy and dank with some citrus. Murky yellow with a decent white head. Minty, herbal and wet grass with some minty bitterness.
