Bottle - Perfumy, passionfruit and citrus peel. Clear goldfish with a decent white head. Lots of tropical fruity notes and a pleasant sourness. Balanced and quite nice.

Slight haze, vaguely orange colour. Big kettle sour nose, not a lot of nuance but some orangey hop. Sweet orangey taste, balanced kettle sour. Moderate bitterness. Could be more expressive, but solid.

Hazy golden color. Mild tropical aroma, pineapple, citrus fruits. A lot of citrus peel in the flavor, and the astringency seems to have increased; mildly sour.
Very nice.

Hazy golden color, small head. Tropical aroma, some passion fruit. Nice, delicate malt base, with also lactic acid, citrusy hop resins; the mild acidity blends very well with the citrusy and tropical character, for a refreshing result, and the final is a bit astringent, zesty. I’ll buy a bottle, but this seems to have more potential from tap.
Very good.

On tap at Powell Street, pours a clear golden with a tiny white head. Aroma brings out substantial acidity and floral dry hopping. Flavour is much less acidic thankfully, but barely sour at all, with subtle floral dry hopping, a touch of stone fruity tartness and a modest lingering acidity. The most restrained of Powell's sours and least acidic, the latter of which is definitely a plus. Decent.
