Pour at brewery. Pours clear amber with foamy white head. Aroma has pine and citrus hops. Flavour resinous with notes of citrus and some sweet malts. Tastes a bit confused. There's something sweet or cloying that accumulates in a not great way.

Poured from the tap @ Slim’s BBQ. Clear gold with minimal white head. Bland biscuit malt, feint hint of orange rind and a bit of resin. Watery, below average, has some potential (though doesn’t seem to have improved in the last 6 years).

Makes a thousand breweries rated for me here. Can. Clear amber, a white head collapses to a loose 1/2cm. Aroma of bread crust, strong pine and grapefruit. Not very sweet but it also lacks a bit of presence. Neither the (somewhat old fashioned) hop aromatics nor the bitterness quite overwhelm though. Nice enough but doesn't have enough guts for 6.5% ABV.

330ml can at Taps Beer Bar, Changkat, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy light amber colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is light toffee caramel malt, light citrus fruit. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a malt, light citrus, woody, floral hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium to light bodied with average to soft carbonation. Refreshing when served cool but somewhat light all round. Not a beer I would want to drink again.

Has soft apricot with grain hints as an aroma though very faint. Nice bright white head and a kind of medium copper body. Flavour is a slow bright peach with some grain notes. Good dry finish with some oiliness on the mouth. It's not a bad balance between IPA and your usual ale stuff.

On June 20, 2015. At Off the Rail Brewing, in Vancouver, British Columbia.Light hazy amber color, off-white head. Light berry scent. Malty, grainy taste. IPA, really? Bitter aftertaste. Medium to medium full mouthfeel, medium high bitterness.

Cloudy and light amber. Off. A bit yeasty, light bitterness and a dash of wonkiness. Crazy is right - this is a faulty beer and they are crazy to sell it.

Draft - Sweet citrus and some caramel notes. Hazy copper with a rich beige head. Light sweet caramel and some pithy notes. Decent.

On tap at Off the Rail, pours an opaque cloudy vibrant orange with a small beige head. Nose brings oranges, some resinous hops and a big caramel malt backbone. Flavour brings out notes of orange rind, resins and way too much caramel malt. There also seems to be some sort of infection here - or maybe it's just a really bad IPA, I can't tell. A little medicinal and too malty. Not good.
