If you spend time on Centre St. in BK you've undoubtable seen our roughneck crew of pigeons trying to grab a stray french fry or a little spent grain while splashing around in the local puddles. A little tribute to our nemisis on the block which we packed with our hand selected Simcoe, Nelson and Centennial on a pils and oat malt base. Complex citrus, pineapple and dank tropical fruit characteristics.

US Pint can at Benny’s place, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head and some clingy lace. The aroma is grainy, woody, herbal. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a smooth, somewhat rich, fresh, juicy citrus, herbal, warm boozy, woody hop bitter palate. Over medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. --- Beer merged from original tick of Pigeon Soup on 23 Jan 2026 at 19:35 - Score: Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5.

Aromas are mainly resin with some citrus, malt and a hint of MJ. Flavors are similar to but better than nose with MJ coming out a little bit more along with citrus and just slightly sweet. Excellent carbonation and good body. Been done before but very nice effort.

Cloudy dark yellow pour with a medium foamy white head that dissipates gradually to a film. Sticky strings of lace. Aroma of resiny hops, tropical fruit and malt. Medium body with flavors of herbal hop, pineapple, grapefruit and biscuit malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a dank and fruity hop aftertaste. Pretty good beer all around.

16 oz can from Half Time, 12/6/24. Pours a fully hazy orange color with a creamy foam of white head that leaves heavy lacework on the glass. Pineapple, orange, and grapefruit forward with some underlying bready and grainy malt notes. Leans sweet. It is a touch thin flavor-wise, especially toward the finish. Incredibly smooth. Fun beer.
