500ml Can - Hazy pale golden with a white head. Grapefruit, orange and some hints of pine in the aroma. Hoppy and fruity taste with notes of grapefruit and orange standing out. Some notes of pine are evident in the finish. Nothing outstanding but a competent APA that's easy to drink.

500ml can. Opalescent, orange, dark golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Piney, mildly grassy and resinous, minimally citrusy, hoppy aroma, pale and caramel malty background, hints of pine, a touch of grapefruit and orange, whiffs of lemon. Taste is moderately bitter, herbal-grassy spicy and slightly citrusy fruity, hoppy, minimally spicy pale malty basis, a touch of caramel malt as well, all with low residual sweetness, hints of tangerine, orange, grapefruit, lemon with a minimally zesty touch. Oily-watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation. Very clean, refreshing, drinkable; nice subtle spicy aspects indicate something like terroir - good!

Tap at Beerdock Halloween Fest. Medium body, med-high carbonation. Medium sweetness, med-high bitterness. Med-light candyish caramelly maltiness, moderate fruity hoppiness. General rounded fruity impression, nothing stands out, pretty classic feeling. Exotic, citrusy. Very easy drinking, very good.

Tap at Beergeek Bar. Coppery clear body, thick off-white head. Buttery, malty aroma, big wormwood notes, some tropical touches. Lean woody taste, caramelly, light butter but mostly wormwoody with light stone fruit. Okay really, just weird.
