On tap at Halo, pours a cloudy orangey yellow with a small white head. Aroma is all jumbled, with lots of murky oats, earthy hops, and a bit of tropical fruitiness. Flavour is very juicy and citrusy, with tons of tropical fruit pith, big citrus, and gentle bitterness. Not too chalky and no hopburn at all, just nice citrusy juiciness. Pretty solid.

On tap at Halo, pours a deep dark brown with a medium beige head. Aroma has light toasted malt and a touch of earthy cocoa. Flavour is dry and smooth, with toasted malt, earthy cocoa, and a hint of coffee grounds. Smooth and drinkable, with reasonable flavour depth for a sub-5% stout. Solid.

On tap at Halo, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of jalapeño, a touch of pineapple, citrus, and saline. Flavour is dry, with lots of bright spritzy lime, a touch of pineapple, plenty of saline, and gentle jalapeño flavour without the spicy burn. Attenuated out, thus finishing nearly bone dry, with nice saline and lime. Very good.

Can from the brewery. Hazy yellow pour, with a large white head. Aroma is a HUGE blast of lemon zest, lemon oil, and lemon drop candies. Oily mouth feel, soft carb. Lemon meringue pie, quite tart, with a light bitterness.

Tap at the source. Cloudy yellow pour, medium white head. Aroma is a burst of every hop adjective you can think of. Loads of citrus, grapefruit peel, and dank, fresh, hop cones. A solid tartness takes hold, and turns to a straight up funk in the end. Grassy, and lactic, but it mingles well with the hop c hop notes. Wicked stuff!
