A punchy citrus and chewy malt nose. Really nice complexity in the hop profile - hits of pine, lemon, grapefruit and tropical fruit work together to create a juicy fresh impact. The malt is very soft and bready with a hint of caramel. The taste finishes with a touch of pepper and a well sustained, blended flavour.

Bottle from the brewery. Hazy yellow pour, with a big white head. Aroma of random citrus fruit, and especially some mango, and vinous green, acidic hops. Nice mouth feel and a solid carb. The finish is very bitter, grapefruit pith bitter. Acidic, vinous finish, more citrus and alot of tropical fruit with a slight yeasty finish.

Bottle from Loblaws. Hazy orange body with yeast flecks floating below a medium white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of marmalade, peach sherbet and salted apricot. Flavour of green apple, white sugar, lemon peel and peppery herbs. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. This grew on me the more I drank.

On cask at the Loon. Hazy golden colour with an amber hue. Good foamy head that lasts a long, long time. Fruity grapefruit aromas with citrus notes. Well-balanced between the sweetness and bitterness. A little more bitterness in the taste, with great citrus overall. The mouthfeel has a nice dryness to it. Quite a nice refreshing hoppy ale with some good citrus.
