473mL can, pours a cloudy peachy golden with a small white head. Nose is quite yeasty and salty, with very earthy hops, biscuity malt, muddy notes from the kveik and salt. Flavour is muddy and salty, with a rather unpleasant dirtiness from the kveik yeast, light earthy hop bitterness, and salt. Still never had a worthwhile beer with kveik yeast; it just muddies everything up it touches. And the salt doesn't help things. Useless beer. Messy, uncoordinated, with few redeeming qualities.

473 ml can. Pours a turbid amber with moderate head. Aromas of pithy citrus, melons, a bit of piney hops, and wheaty malts. Flavors of candied grapefruit, melons, a little resin, and more wheaty malts. Piney finish

Can from Legacy LRS, Vancouver
Cloudy to murky blond colour. Fruity aroma, light citrus, lightly spicy. Dry mouthfeel, with some oats chalkiness, quite strong spicy yeast character, decent bitterness, some citrus peel.
Good.

Last time I was at Woodcutter's they were just installing the brewery and I was drinking Pingo and cocktails. So I'm pumped to see this one because I haven't been back up since before covid. Thick and sweet. Some pine, but more grapefruit and tropical fruit notes. Decent pale, a bit thick and sweet for me, but good stuff.
