Pale pink and cloudy. Nose is quite light. Touch of fraises. Yogurty tart, strawberry...kinda thick mouthfeel like sorghum beer. Weird beer. I might be lowballing it a touch but it’s not working for me.

On tap at Callister, pours an opaque cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out loads of stone fruity pithiness, piney hops, some citrus zest and biscuity malt. Flavour is wonderfully balanced, with lots of pith, tropical stone fruits, piney hops and a smooth biscuity malt base. Appropriately bitter, dry and pithy on the finish. An excellent filthy, hipster IPA.

Draught at Callister, Vancouver
Murky pink grapefruit color with no head. Aroma of peach and grapefruit juices, a bit footy too. Tastes like kiwi juice left one day on the counter, but more sour, with no beer character, and some yogurt.
Anti-beer here, I wouldn’t bother any more.

Growler from the Callister (thx, Alex!) at Alex’s in honor of my birthday and CPA PREP finish. Pours a clody golden with a white head. Aroma is tropical fruits and lacto. Taste is the same. Pleasant.

Growler from the brewery
Filthy murky blond color, no head. Very nice aroma, strawberries, banana, a bit dank. Lean body, just light sweetness; crisp malts flavor, followed by strong orange character, both sweet orange juice and bitter orange peel. The flour doesn’t muddle this too much.
Good.

On tap at Callister. Pours a cloudy yellow with a white head. Aroma is tropical fruits with earthy notes. Taste is dunk, tropical fruits, juicy. Very good for the people who do love (not like some other people kind of A. and M., lol) such kind of beer.

On tap at the Callister. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Aroma is piney hops with some unusual berry-ish/fruit-ish notes. Taste is with the strange notes and hoppy bitterness. Quite good, but not the best from Boombox.
