A lightly hazed golden ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, nice biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, light mineral notes, light dank notes, pleasant. In mouth, a nice biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light tropical fruits, very nice. On tap at brewery.

Brownish body leading toward copper and just a biy of foam on top. Vague malt aroma, soft hops, but nothing propels upward. Flavour is plasticky hops with soft malt hints and nothing else. Full enough on the mouth, drinkable but very boring.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a clear copper with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of piney hops and some nice tropical fruity notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with piney hops, tropical fruits and caramel malts. Rather floral on the finish. Decent.

Bottle, Legacy. Hazy amber with a bubbly head. Fresh citrusy, woody C-hop nose with bright floral notes as well. Has a nice clean bitterness, balanced C hop character, good malt sweetness and again the more modern floral-type hop notes come into the finish. Fresh-tasting, too. It’s rare to see a basic pale this dialed in - the brewers genuinely care about this beer.

Draught at Darby’s Public House, Vancouver
Hazy light amber color. The aroma is lightly floral and malty. The mouthfeel is dry, not weak; the dry malt flavor and hopping are ordinary. Correct bitterness. A bit metallic in the final.
Clean but simple Pale Ale.

On tap. Pours a deep copper color with moderate head. Aromas of dried fruit and toasted malts. Flavors of bitter citrus, breadcrusts, and bitter resin. So-so...

Bottle - Earthy and orange with some biscuit notes. Clear gold with a rich off white head. Orange hops, light biscuit and some light bitterness. Not bad, not as hoppy as described, but that could be the age. Very dry finish.
