473mL can, pours a clear bright golden with a medium white head. Aroma is loaded with bright piney hops upfront, with crisp crackery malt, and grapefruit rind. Flavour is loaded with bright piney hops upfront, light oily resins, and crisp crackery malt. Wonderful piney hop character with great assertiveness and ample bitterness, while still being moderately juicy. Excellent.

On tap at Wayfinder, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out loads of coffee upfront, with lager yeast and toasted malt. Flavour is wonderfully structured, with loads of coffee, sweet malt, light molasses, and toasted bread. Really well-balanced and structured; the ABV is scarily hidden. Excellent.

On tap at Wayfinder, pours a clear copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out pungent piney hops, some dankness, and resinous hop oils. Flavour is intense but balanced, with pungent piney hops, resinous hop oils, and biscuity malt. Piney, resinous and dank finish, with just enough sweetness to hold it together. Excellent stuff.
