Cloudy, aroma is bright, grapefruity and with tropical notes. Sweet, touch yeasty, with again some nice floral, subtropical hops.

On tap at Callister, pours an opaque cloudy yellow with a medium white head. Aroma brings out lots of floral hops, a little pine, and a soft pillowy malt backbone. Flavour is fairly restrained, with a floral hop characteristic and a big yeast soup. Hopefully the clarity improves a bit, as this is very dirty right now. Decent but needs some work.

2017-10-01, can, 6.5% ABV, 8-3-8-5-16=40
Murky yellow-orange, a bit dull (3.5). The aroma is very fruity, apricot jam, citrus peel. Smooth mouthfeel, the dry feeling blends well with the strong zesty, citrusy hops, and the bitterness in the final is balanced, with more hop resins appearing; a bit wheaty, chalky, but not disturbing.
Excellent.
2017-09-15, can, 6.5% ABV, 8-4-8-4-16=40
Orange color, murky, poor head retention. The fruity aroma is lovely, there is sweet orange, a touch of mango, hints of lychee and guava. The mouthfeel is quite dry, the hopping is juicy, citrusy (cedar fruit, some grapefruit, some bitter orange), with a very light vegetable note in the end. It's also a bit chalky and yeasty.
Compared to Twin Sails and Superflux, this beer is dirtier, but still an excellent hop job.
2016-08-27, draught at Callister, Vancouver; 5.8% ABV, 8-3-8-5-17=41
Murky blond color with compact head. Very nice aroma, fruity hops, strong, a bit dank. The mouthfeel is quite dry, and bold; wheaty malts, white bread, mild; the hopping is very fruity and resiny, I almost don't feel the bitterness at first; juicy, with a long bitter final.
A bit dirty (flavor) like all these East Coast beers, but it delivers plenty of hop goodness.

Draught at Callister, Vancouver
Opaque blond color with no head. Gentle aroma of lemon, rubber, stone fruits, fruit ice cream. Dry but not weak, it has a mild acetone note, robust acidity that will end up burning the stomach, some bready malts, and a nice fruity touch, pink grapefruit dominates, then more lemon.
I got a lot of peach floaties in the glass.
Ugly but bold and tasty.

On tap at Callister. Pours a very hazy straw golden with no head. Aroma is stone fruits, sour, lacto. Taste is pretty the same character but with more sourness and less stone fruits. Sour aftertaste with some very light notes of bitterness on the background. Pleasant, but it needs more flavor in my opinion.

2016-08-26. Rating #700! On tap at Callister. Pours a clody straw golden with a white head. Aroma is very juicy with tropical fruits and piney notes, slightly skunky - very pleasant! Taste, surpisingly, not so rich as aroma, but same character, though. Piney hops aftertaste. Very good, but would perfect with more rich flavor.

Tall can (thx, Brian!) shared with George. Canned on 2017-09-07. Pours like a peach nectar. Aroma is crazy juicy with apricot and tea notes. Same nice taste. Wow, this one is incredible apricot bomb!!!

On tap at Callister, pours a hazy golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of juicy, dank citrus hops. Flavour is big on dank citrus hops upfront, with a dry biscuity malt backbone and residual astringency. Seems like an attempt to recreate one of Machine's IPAs, but falls a bit short. Still, quite nice.
