473mL can. Pours opaque yellow with minimal white head. Aroma has juicy grapefruit, sugars, a bit of tang. Flavour has a ton of syrup and grapefruit up front; quite juicy and tangy. The alcohol content is more than apparent. The syrup is completely overpowering, it's hard to swallow without gagging. Not really sure what I expected from a 12% hazy, but this is a total clusterfuck.

473ml can. Pours a cloudy gold orange with yeast particles that sink to the bottom and a medium, foamy, short lived, off-white head that laces. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, passionfruit, orange, mango, pineapple, earthy yeast and light piney hops.

Poured from the tap @ 2 Crows downtown. Lightly hazed golden yellow with minimal white head. The POG elements are there, but a bit timid. Average.
