The Siren of the Seas is a fickle creature: benevolent or spiteful, she can bestow a safe passage and bountiful catch, or provoke storms and shipwrecks. Sailors have long cast gifts of flowers, food or trinkets into the sea in exchange for good fortune. Talisman - our delicately dry-hopped and golden-hued ale with its tropical and citrusy aroma - may be just the thing to encourage the siren’s blessing.

473mL can. Pours cloudy yellow with white head. Aroma has very gentle pine and wheaty malts. Flavour is pretty wheaty with some pine and resin detectable. This is a very hop-backward pale ale.

On tap. Pours a dark gold with light head. Not really getting much of anything. Dull toasted malts and old grassy hops. Not offensive.
