Draft - Mango, green grass and citrus peel. Clear gold with a decent white head. Touch dank and light bready notes with a touch of citrus.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Hazy blond colour. Mild aroma of stone fruit and very little dank. Dry but not weak, with crisp base, light cereals, and a nice dank hopping, some citrus peel too. A bit astringent in the final.
Very good.

Draught at the brewery. Cloudy, thin head. Light kettle sour, almost lactose, tart and sugary at the same time, like pear tart with really underripe pears. Messy.

Golden, bright, thin head. Malty nose. Light citrus, and a bit grainy. Soft and sweet, and that yuzu is quite prominent on the palate. Decent for what it is - seems like something more like a Suntory craft can more than something else.

Cloudy, thin head. Aroma is brett, soft floral hops, vinous sweetness...an appetizing aroma. Quite sweet, even now 5 months later. Just light brett, the hops lending some grapefruit bitterness and just a touch of tropical fruit. The wine barrel presents as less integrated on the palate. I would say this developed ok, but not perfectly...the risk of barrel-aging.

Opaque, tan, bubbly head, lots of lavender and juniper, quite tart, lots of lavender, fruity juniper...a nice dry finish but still a decent malt character.

An Oxford tasting
Cloudy golden color. Aroma of Brett, barrel, apricot. Sweet mouthfeel, good rich blond malt base, lightly salty, sour, light balsamic, stone fruits, strong barrel character. Not completely harmonious, but very good.

Murky blond color. Indeed, some peach aroma. Sweet, a bit muddy, with strong flavor of peach juice, light acidity, not of lemon zest, touch of creamy lactose.
The concoction actually works out, quite pleasant.

Cloudy blond color. The base is a lean but sticky, mellow, watery American Saison, it has a light biscuity and fruity touch too, may be the Cascara.
An ok beer, not in my chords though.

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy light blond colour. Delicate aroma of stone and tropical fruits, peach, touch of lychee. The mouthfeel is rather dry and weak, Light malt base but with some quality element, light yogurt feeling, moderate stone fruits juice. Very low bitterness, but a bit zesty in the final. Many things going on here, even without the strength.
You looking for a light summer beer? This is the one.
