Poured from the tap at 12 kings (menu lists ABV at 6.8%). Slightly hazy light brownish gold with white head. Mild biscuit malt, subdued tropical hops with hint of pine and weed. Nice balance.

473 ml can. Pours a clear amber with moderate head. Aromas of pineapple, candied fruit, spicy resin, and toasted malts. Flavors follow same with additional sweet doughy malts and dank hops. Mosaic...

On tap at Darby's Gastown, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma is loaded with piney hops upfront, with light tropical fruitiness and crisp crackery malt. Flavour is quite sweet, with tropical pithy fruits, piney hops and sweet biscuity malt. I suppose the piney hop oils impart a fair bit of residual sweetness here. A bit too sweet for my tastes, but this is still really nicely done.

Tall can. Canned on 2017-12-23. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a white head. Aroma is tropical fruits. Usual for Mosaic hops. Similar taste. Good one for Mosaic fans, however, unforunately, I am not.

Draught, Darby’s Gastown. Light amber with just a touch of haze, and a bubbly, frothy head. All kinds of dank, weedy mosaic on the nose, with some gentle biscuity malts and a dash of alcohol. On the palate, this comes across quite sweet, with a moderate grapefruit bitterness, and a hearty dose of alcohol. There’s quite a bit of sweetness underpinning this, providing structure. That said, there's certainly moments with this comes across as a little too chewy. I’d say maybe too boozy, too, but this is an IIPA and alcohol is part of the style...I just personally prefer these same characteristics without the alcohol. It’s funny how a beer that is probably better than Pliny today nevertheless is viewed as imperfect, knowing that 10 years ago Pliny was IIPA perfection.
