Hazy, medium head. Amber-yellow colour. The aroma has a fair bit going on - I'm guessing the white IPA part is a Belgian yeast because it's kicking off a lot of esters. There's red currants and clementines in there as well. I love Barbe Rouge but I'm thinking there's so much else going on it's blending in a bit more than I'd like. It's definitely Belgian yeast because the malts are really sticky, underattenuated. The esters are calmer on the palate but still prominent, along with more orangey notes. There's still a bit of bitterness, but it's got a funny sort of balance.

Pours a very nice solid foam and cloudy orange body. Good tangerine and papaya on the nose, slight candied pineapple. Flavour is sweet mandarin orange, soft pineapple, dry grain back end. Refreshing, tasty, very well crafted.

Murky blond colour, medium sized head. There's a bit of citrus juice and zest character from the hop, but I had brighter beers from Phantom; moderately juicy; the mouthfeel is half dry, this means that also the alcohol is more evident (just a bit of warmth on the palate); usual wheat/oat base for a Hazy, not too dirty.
Balanced, but without highlights.

Poured from 473mL can. Cloudy pale gold with white head. Doughy malt with gentle spice, subtle sweet berry notes, light floral hops. Decent.

473mL can, pours a cloudy golden with a large white head. Nose is doughy and spicy, with peppery, spicy hops, doughy notes, floral notes, and biscuity malt. Flavour is a little different, with dank hops, sweet malt, and a touch of floral character. Sweet, juicy and dank — tasting quite different than the aroma suggests. Pretty solid.
