On tap at Urban Family, pours black with a large beige head. Aroma brings out rich roasted malt, intense earthy and piney hops, and bitter coffee. Flavour is bold and yet balanced, with earthy hops, pine, and roast. Great hop and malt base, with expert balance. Top-quality black IPA.

On tap at Urban Family, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out rustic saison yeast, some wild bugs, and a hint of oak. Flavour is a bit jumbled, with rustic and wild yeast, gently tart citrus, and a hint of oak. Not the most complex or refined but it's a solid enough blend. Decent.

16 oz. can, courtesy of andrewe41 (thanks man!), pours a totally opaque golden yellow with a medium white head. Aroma is rather chalky, but also has a nice vibrant tropical fruit character, along with stone fruit pith, and melony hops. Flavour is nicely juicy, with plenty of tropical fruit, stone fruit, melon, and subdued citrus hoppy bitterness. Fruity, juicy and minimally chalky. Triple [hazy] IPA? Certainly a double. Fun juicy haze but lacks the hops I want in a proper IPA and is still a bit too on the chalky side. Good.

12 oz can poured as this one has made a necessary comeback. Really nice sour full of fresh tropical fruit flavors with a long lingering tart. Cloudy reddish orange appearance. Has a mixed berry throughout as well. Layered sour with an array of specific fruit and berry. Sourness 7/10. Really nice and refreshing brew here.

Draft pour at Urban Family, Ballard. Rating from backlog. Juicy, hazy golden appearance with a thin film head. Lots of bold stone fruit, bitter citrus peel, and other orange fruit lingering on the palate. Really fruit forward IPA for one in which no fruit was harmed. Peach like notes in the background. Creamy body. Refreshing and tasty.
