473mL can. Pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Bright, soft pine, resin, and sweet doughy malts on the nose. Flavour has tons of bitter, resinous pine, lots of dankness, a touch of citrus peel, and a good malt base. Fantastic.

Quite pale. Slight haze. Light fruity hop aroma, good mosaic, rambutan, clean pale malt. Medium bitterness, medium body, that hop expression - the white grapefruit, rambutan, and vaguely vinous character.

16 oz. can, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma is super bright on the NZ tangy hops, with some tropical melon, some pine, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is surprisingly prominent on the hop expression, with intense white wine-like hop tanginess, tropical melon, light pine, and some doughy malt. Wonderful hop combo and beautifully-structured pale. Excellent.

16oz can. Pours clear blonde with a small white head. Super dank and piney nose, melon; very vibrant hops. Flavour has a very dank and oily hop expression, melon, vibrant and fresh with a good amount of tanginess throughout, crisp biscuit malts. Damn this has a fantastic hop expression.

Slight haze, low head. Great aroma - mint, lemonbalm, bright florals. On the palate, this has a lot of bitterness, a woody, minty, limonene accented hop character. Pale malt balance. This is great.

16 oz. can, pours a hazed pale golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals lots of dusty woody piney hops, pinecones, and a touch of dankness. Flavour has a lot of bitter pinecones, dusty wood, some dankness, and a dry biscuity malt. Dry, dusty, piney and bitter. Nice—borderline harsh—expression of the Columbus. Very good.

Poured from 473mL can. Lightly hazed blonde gold with small white head. Intense Columbus hops, resiny dusty dank wet wood notes, dry resinous finish. Not sure that I really like this intensity of Columbus, but it's well done and a good feature of the hop.

473mL can. Pours murky light gold with a white head. Tons of dusty, woody pine and light citrus on the nose. Flavour is super dusty, lots of that woody pine, a bit of citrus twist. Long, dry finish. Fantastic, I love how the Columbus is coming through.
