16 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a fairly recent release. Pours moderately hazy/cloudy deep golden amber color with a 1 finger dense and rocky off white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Dense foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big lemon, orange, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, melon, red apple, citrus peel/zest, wood, peppercorn, light pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/fairly earthy hops, fruity/spicy yeast, and pale/wheat malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big lemon, orange, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, melon, red apple, citrus peel/zest, wood, peppercorn, light pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate peppery yeast spiciness; and light pine, citrus peel/zest, herbal, floral, woody, grassy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, orange, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, melon, red apple, citrus peel/zest, wood, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/fairly earthy hops, fruity/spicy yeast, and pale/wheat malt flavors; with a nice malt/bitter/spiciness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitter/spiciness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready/grainy, and fairly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 8%; with mild increasing hop burn after the finish. Overall this is an excellent East coast styled Belgian IPA. All around great citrus/fruity hops, fruity/spicy yeast, and pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mellowly bitter/spicy/drying finish; great soft feel. Feels like mostly El Dorado hops. Very juicy, vibrant, and fairly dank/earthy hops with balanced Norwegian farmhouse yeast complexity; and a great balanced pale/wheat malt backbone. Light residual sweetness with lingering dryness. A very enjoyable, unique, and well made offering for a hybrid style.

Can at Black Christmas 2018
Murky blonde colour. Fruity, tropical, lean, not too much oats; drier than expected in the finish.
Very good.

16 oz. can, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out dank hops, some celery and biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with lightly dank hops, citrus notes and vegetables. Lightly dank and citrusy finish. Okay.

Hazy orange. Some light spoce, getting some pine and it is dry, not sweet like most of the style.

Can. Pours a hazy yellow with a gold hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has light citrus and grass with a bit of juniper and a light grain backbone. Flavor has juniper and citrus with a good amount of earthy grains and grass underlying.
