473ml can. Pours a hazy blue-purple with a small, fizzy, short lived, off-white head that laces. Sweet aroma of raspberry gummies. Sweet flavour of raspberry gummies and blueberry Kool-Aid in a slightly tart finish. Light body with a watery texture and lively carbonation. I may now have diabetes, but I am kinda embarrassed to say I liked this a bit. Not beer, but would be great in the summer heat. Like drinking a melted Slurpee.

Cloudy and pale with a decent head. The aroma is sort of stank, but the palate is kiwi, lots of lime, maybe even cinnamon. So not bad. Fairly tart, as these usually are.

473mL can, pours a somewhat hazy dull golden with a medium white head. Aroma is very inviting, with a bouquet of tropical fruits, resinous hops, piney notes, and some melon. Flavour is on the sweet side, with lots of candied tropical fruits, resinous hop oils, light pine, and sticky caramel. Finishes on notes of alcohol, white grape, melon, and sticky resins. Doesn't have the powerful hop character that some other iterations have, but it's juicy and vibrant nonetheless. Excellent.

Can from Legacy LRS, Vancouver
Dark brown colour. Aroma of cheap chocolate, some cacao. Good body strength, but it's just sweet without malty body; cheap chocolate, hazelnut syrup, sweetener (lactose or something else).
Cheating pastry stout. Drinkable, but even at this price we can get something better

Can from Jak's Parkcrest, Burnaby
Hazy blond colour. Delicate aroma, white grapes, lightly dank; the flavour is stronger, with some juicy pale malt, lean body, very little residual sweetness; good hopping, some citrus peel, some tropical fruit, balanced bitterness, and some evident alcohol.
Not bright or powerful like some others in the series, but it's still a very good one.

Not really getting any pancake. More sweet than sour, almost cloying.
