1L swingtop from Malt & Vine. Pours hazy amber gold with a foamy white head. Light aromas of floral and fruit. Med body. Frothy carb. Flavor is floral, light stone fruit, touch of citrus, light malt, and something that makes me think of matches. Guess the main thing is the hop and malt, which is always followed by a herbiness til the next mouthful. It’s quite dry, certainly bitter. I’d say they nailed the style. If I’m being a bit harsh, I think it’s because I keep thinking ESB, which it isn’t. Nice shot at a bit of over the pond.

Bottle. Pours with a clear golden body and a large white head. Head lasts for a while and produces pretty decent lace. Aromas are grassy with notes of toasted bread, doughy bread, pepper, tangerine and a light hint of dried fruits. Flavors are grainy, bready and grassy. Possibly a hint of diacetyl buttery-ness. Decently bitter finishing with notes of dried tangerine. Medium to lively carbonation. Medium dry finish. Crisp and bitter.

Hazy amber. Thin head. Balanced character. Light caramel and earth. Vague all round. Moderate bitterness. Very middle of the road character, just not that interesting.

Pours golden with a frothy head. Bitter malts on the aroma and flavour, more on the hoppy side. Not bad.

Tried this one over a year back from a bottle bought from a BC liquor store. Had a nice sweet taste, some unique elements in the flavour, was okay, taste was a little artificial to be a bitter though. I think the name is the main driver behind buying a bottle!

Tap at Moonrakers: The first sip delivers a massive unclean dirty line taste. I don’t get this often at Moonrakers, so it must be the beer. Hazy gold, stark white head. Neutral nose. The unclean taste aside, this is a well hopped beer, but lacks malt backbone. Not something I will have again.
