On tap at Pizza Port - Carlsbad, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is full of tropical fruits, tangy hops, citrus, and dank pine. Flavour is dank as hell, with bright piney hops, big dankness, tangy hops, and a bitter, piney, tropical finish. Bright and balanced. Excellent.

4oz pour in the O'Shea Taproom on 30th July 2025. Clean and clear golden body, white crust. Citrus bite from the hop compo, hidden pine flavours over a decent malty base, liked it.

Lots of stone fruit, allium, malts are grainy, hops full of cannabis. Not half bad.

Pint can pours with a crystal clear pure gold colored body that supports a nice near white head of foam. The aroma offers up inviting notes of clementine, grapefruit, a bit of spiciness, peach and a faint berry sensation. The taste delivers the goods with pine hop bitterness rimmed with a bit of dank onion as well as bitter grapefruit paired with clementine citrus like juiciness. Another sip reveals a thin layer of sweet malt that tries and fails to break up the mainly bitter hop onslaught. Solid offering.
