Hazy, pale amber sort of colour. Bubbly head. Light, the kveik is kind of kicking off esters here, full body, moderate bitterness, but not much else going on.

On tap at The Barley Merchant, pours a yeah golden orange with a small white head. Aroma reveals lacto, sweet peaches, and some Snapple ice tea. Flavour is somewhat like peach Snapple, with light lacto and light-to-medium sweet peaches. Nicely peachy and balanced pretty well. Decent.

473mL can. Pours murky ruddy brown with large foamy white head. Aroma has a lot of candied sugar, some herbal notes, and maybe some Belgian yeast if I convince myself. Flavour also has a lot of candied sugar with a bit of herbal to offset. Burny toffee on the finish. Certainly a drinkable strong beer, but not a Belgian quad.

473 ml can. Pours a dark reddish brown with light head. Aromas of candi sugar, caramel raisins and bready malts. Flavors follow same with emphasis on sugars and almost doughy malts. A nice sweet malty beer but not really in style.

On tap at The Magnet, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of strawberries, some stone fruits and some earthy hops. Flavour is similar, with strawberries, stone fruits and citrus rinds for hops. I initially thought diacetyl, but it's more strawberry-like. Not great.

On tap at The Magnet, pours a clear copper bronze with a tiny white head. Aroma is yogurty, with strawberry and hibiscus in the background. Flavour is not pleasant, with lots of low-quality strawberry yogurt, a touch of hibiscus, and more yogurt. This is terrible. Jesus Christ.
