Bottle from Safeway. Medium golden body, small, consistent creamy head. Aroma is bready malts with light hoppy notes. Taste is light vitrus notes backed by a solid biscuity malt bill, think pils. Subdued bitterness, slightly sticky.

500ml bottle pours out an orange color topped with a white head. Nose is citrus forward a nice light spice with a bread malt. Taste is as the nose with the orange peel grapefruit leading the way.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Hazy dark blond color, compactness persistent head. The aroma is citrusy and tropical. Soft mouthfeel, touch of coriander, zesty, not bad, but the citrus presence is a bit too much and distracts from the hops, hence a bit weird and unbeery.

Golden. Fairly thick head. This has a stack of grapefruit zest on the nose. Sweet, very nice grapefruit character. And the pale malt is sweet, balancing well. This is pretty good. I would drink this quite a bit. By the numbers, but damn nice.

16.9 oz bottle. Aroma is strong citrus zest, as described; also chalky candy. Pours lightly hazy golden with a medium long-retaining white with great retention and lace. Taste is not quite as impressive as the aroma, but it’s good. It’s lightly bitter, lightly sweet with flavors of citrus, touch of onion. Softly carbonated. Nice beer.

Draft. Clear golden body with an off-white head. Pleasant aroma of citrus, orange, lemon, toasted grain, pine, light resin. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Lots of citrus — grapefruit, orange, lemon — but also pine and resin notes from the Chinook in the finish, a little too much for a beer that is all about citrus. But otherwise, clean, nice drinking.

500mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out tons of citrus zest upfront, along with very floral hops. Flavour is heavily floral in the hop department, with citrus zest, perfumey floral notes and dry biscuity malt. Some light residual sweetness from the hop oils. Nice stuff.
