A really tasty hopped version of a Kolsch. Tropical fruit, fresh lemon and a spritz of orange and peach. Grain flavoured malts and a healthy carbonation help support this really refreshing 4.2% summer offering.

Hazy, dull, pale pour @ChurchKey. Juicy dry hop, minerally, calcium nose. Thin body, mellow cereal & fruit, dirty acidic hops that I liked at first but then the beer starts to show an ugly peanut shell, oxidized finish. Frothy, low tart, whatever abv. It's still a blonde. Nah.

Crisp golden and very lightly bronzed coloured body, all with a relatively large three to four centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of very grassy and herbal hops with a dry malt bite and some lighter sweetness from the citrus fruits and even a pure caster sugar and light honey note, all with no alcohol or depth. Light-bodied; Strong grassy and very herbal properties show up first with a very easy-drinking profile along with a dry malt note, some subdued and non-bitter hop flavours and ending with a light dose of sugars from the caster sugar. Aftertaste is dry and herbal throughout with a grainy bite and some softer hops towards the end that are noticeable but don't add much in terms of complexity. Overall, a nice blonde with a good taste that shows some quality, yet is very easy-drinking and still complex enough to make it a worthwhile drink. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, given to me by Director of Operations of the brewery after a hockey game i early 2019 - Thanks Erik!

Tap at Bluejacket. Milky yellow. Sweaty tropical hops on a light crunchy malt base. Mellow, lightly sticky resin. Ok haze.

Draught at the source: pours hazy gold with white head. Aroma is lemony and peachy. Taste is somewhat bitter, yet still quite juicy.
