Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a slightly hazy golden colored body that supports a thin near white head. The modest aroma offers up lemon and subtle grainy malts. Taste is similar as there minimal sweet fruity esters and it stays dry and crisp. Nice offering. Not getting much, if any, Saaz. That's ok.

On tap at the brewery. Pours clear gold with a white head. Fairly light nose, some woody pine. Flavour has sharp pine, fibrous grass. Tired. It's okay, definitely a west coast, but lacks the malt body to compete with other flagship IPAs from BC.
