Good foggy orange and nice foam, soft banana and sugar on the nose. Flavour is chewy grains, soft wheat dough and sweetness. Good dry grain aftertaste. A nice hefe, well made with unique twists.

Okay white foam and clear yellow body, grassy soft lager hops on the nose. Flavour is soft rice, pepperoni stick additives, weak lager hops. Odd meat aftertaste. I have no idea who this would appeal to, and this brewery has so many better beers.

Soft brown body and little foam, malt and fake strawberry on the nose. Flavour is a nicely balanced semi fresh strawberry and sweet biscuity malt. Only comes across as slightly fake, and more balanced than usual in this part of the world for a brew like this.

The aroma is perfect coconut and pineapple. Not much foam on this but an okay cloudy light gold body. Flavour is great coconut and pineapple working well together, perfectly balanced. Mouthfeel is crisp and refreshing. This is a hard combo to get right but it's very well done here.

Smells of soft lemony grains, has okay foam on top of a clearish light orange body. Flavour is mellow cardboard. Refreshing at least, pretty standard but drinkable.

Grumbler from the brewery. Pours a nice bright carbonated yellow with pretty good bleach white head on top. Nice sweet hop aroma, sugary. Flavour is sweet hoppiness and chewy candy. Oily mouthfeel. Pretty good, simple but effective and well crafted.

On tap, poured into a growler, brought back via helicopter to the Lower Mainland to imbibe on the continent. Per se, shall we say. This pours a very cloudy yellow with pretty big bleach white foam though it doesn't stick around for too long. There is huge, yuge (!!!) mango and passion fruit on the nose yet good, and not to sweet nor snooty, just a nice appetizing fruity vibe to the thing. The flavour is a big sweet and sour mix of passion fruit and mango kicking into a medium finish; not too sour per se but nonetheless very tasty, a big fruit juice kick that actually works and doesn't come across as some cloying sugar bomb. I'm not a big fan of fruity things but this works. It really, really works.
