(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours near-opaque orange-gold with a thick white head leaving lace. Aroma of sweet preserved peach and pineapple, overripe canteloupe, candied orange, citrus peels, some semi-ripe mango mix of juice and piney resin, touch of alcohol warmth. Flavour is sweet up front with lots of candied citrus and melon, some peach/mango back notes, lightly floral and somewhat dank, rindy quality in the middle, lemon and orange oils, brioche malt core, prominent fruity slightly bready yeast, semi-dry finish that's got a fair bit of alcohol warmth and some spicy though lowish bitterness hop quality into the finish, herbal, spicy and slightly soapy Strata-type vibes in the aftertaste. Medium-bodied, soft to moderate carbonation, oily to creamy feel. Nicely brewed if a little rough with that booze popping out, Boreale sweet juice as expected, good mouthfeel. Tough to pick out the Zappa here but I feel like it could be blending into the Strata.
