473ml can. Pours a clear amber-gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves plenty of lace. Sweet aroma of biscuit malt, caramel, earthy yeast, white wine and generic citrus. Sweet flavour of biscuit malt, caramel, white grape, peach, grapefruit, pine resin and floral hops in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Malt forward, not as hoppy as I thought it would be.

On tap at Alley Kat, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out a sort of limey character, with earthy hops, unfermented wort, and dusty biscuity malt. Flavour brings out a bitter earthy, citrus hop character, with crisp biscuity malt to back. Very bitter and dry on the finish, with almost no residual sweetness. Probably not the best utilization of the hop, but it's well-made, especially during these days of hazy yeast soup galore.
