Brewed with rice and fermented cold with lager yeast, this beer is a crisper, dryer version of a West Coast IPA. The dry hop blasts the beer with tropical notes of Citra and we shuttled in some rare Barbe Rouge hops from France to add notes of ripe red fruit. Space out with this brew!

Slight haze, thin head. Dullish pale sort of colour. The hops are all over the place on the nose - allium, weed and overripe papaya all at once. It's a goddamn cacophony. Too bad because I usually really like Barbe Rouge. On the palate, those elements blend into each other a bit better. The malt is pretty thick, and much gloppier than I'd like. The cold ferment did not work at all - it got stuck or cut short or something. I wish I'd seen that it was a cold IPA before I bought it.

Poured from 473mL can. Clear golden blonde with small white head. Pine hops, resin, light oiliness, crisp. Very nice.

473mL can, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Nose reveals gentle piney hops, oily resins, grass, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is vibrant and punchy, with nicely bitter piney hops, fresh grassiness, and a bone dry crisp biscuity base that nicely dries this out. Vibrant, fresh, crisp and gently oily. Lovely west coast style IPA, with no rough edges. Excellent.

Hazy blond colour. Aroma of piney and dank hops. Dry mouthfeel, it has a nice malt base, like a Pilsner, good body structure, so maybe it's not so dry, a touch of alcohol, and good resinous hops.
I'm getting bought by this concept.

Very modest foam on some good clear gold body, strong visible carbonation. Subdued sweet hop aroma, vague kumquat and sugared cantaloupe. Taste has some earthy rice grain with sweet hops. Very good smooth mouthfeel, slight oiliness, carbonation doesn't pan out. Nice meld of rice and hops, smooth and easy drinking.
