On tap at Callister, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots from piney and dank hops, with toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is pretty dank, with lots of piney hops, moderate dankness and dry resinous hop oils. Oily, piney palate. Very good.

Draught at Callister, Vancouver; 12oz
Cloudy golden color, not as filthy as new England IPAs. Refreshing aroma; explosion of fruity hops, including mango, white grapes. The residual sweetness is moderate, the malts are delicate, not very expressive though; loads of dry hopping leave a strong fruity presence, mainly sweet oranges, and actually the bitterness isn’t even too evident. Mild astringency in the final.
Excellent beer, extremely juicy, somehow missing a whoop though.

Draft - Citrus and peach notes. Cloudy gold with a nice white head. Creamy citrus and stone fruit with a nice ash finish. ABV is very well hidden, a dangerously drinkable beer.

2019-07-11, draught at Darby's Gastown, 7% ABV, 8-3-8-4-17=40
Cloudy to murky blond colour with small creamy head. Strong citrus peel character, some hop resins, good body, enough bitterness, and I sense a bit of residual sugar too. A lot of character.
Excellent batch.
2017-09-23, can, 7-3-5-2-11=28
Murky yellow-orange color, small head, disappears quickly. Aroma of orange peel and yeast. It's moderately juicy, mostly orange and orange peel; it also has too much yeast, it's astringent, and in the final it has pithy bitterness.
Very chaotic and dirty.
2017-08-29, draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver, 8-2-5-1-11= 27
Murky orange-blond color, small head. The aroma is very fruity, peachy, with some sweat. The mouthfeel is chewy, chalky, very yeasty, leading to strong vegetable bitterness and final astringency.
Very dirty beer, not pleasant.
2016-11-02, draught at Callister, Vancouver, 7-3-7-4-15=36
Cloudy pale blond color. Nice aroma of fruity hops, stone fruits, lightly dank. Lean mouthfeel, light residual sweetness, the malts are a bit bready, less crisp than other Boombox pale beers, but the hopping is well done, with both bitterness and soft resins, hop oils, orange peel, and some astringency in the final, probably the oats.
Very good.

On tap at Callister, pours a cloudy golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is pretty dank, with lots of dank hops, pine, and a light toasted biscuity malt. Flavour follows with a hugely dank character on the hops, with considerable pith, and a dry biscuity malt base. Wonderfully constructed with the right balance of everything. Excellent.

Update - much like the original but a better flavour. Good upgrade. Draft - Tropical fruits and citrus notes. Cloudy orange gold with a small white head. Citrus and peel with some nice pith. Not as good as the nose, but still good.

Cask at Callister, Vancouver, gravity dispense
Not a good look, it’s murky and dull, with no head. Aroma and flavor are an explosion of citrusy and juicy hops, the mouthfeel is dry, initially not even too thin, but it gets weaker in the final. A bit astringent too. The lack of carbonation affects negatively the palate.
Questionable production method, but good result.
