Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8

Draught at Craft Beer Market, Vancouver
Dark amber color, clean, with small head. Malt and hop aroma, delicate and nice, with citrusy notes, lightly piney. Good body strength, yet the mouthfeel is lean; good caramel flavor with moderate sweetness; quite strong bitterness; there is a hint if crystal malt but luckily not too much; ends with some orangey piney timid hop resins.
Balanced, clean, fresh; very good.

On tap at Craft Beer Market Vancouver, pours a clear golden / amber with a small white head. Aroma of dry earthy caramel malt, piney hops, and floral notes. Flavour brings out earthy caramel malts and floral hops upfront. Really nice balanced between the earthy malt and hops. Surprisingly great for Granville Island.
