Tap at Brewerkz, Riverside Point. Poured a hazy medium amber with a long lasting frothy white head. The aroma is big citrus hop. The flavour is moderate bitter sweet with a sweet chewy malt, big citrus hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

AROMA: predominant blend of citric hop aroma (grapefruit) with orange, some coriander and a slight sweet malty background, APPEARANCE: pale gold color and slightly hazy. moderate white head with average retention. TASTE: hop flavor with notes similar to aroma (grapefruit) and also slight orange and lemony coriander and some spicy notes. high bitterness with a medium-dry and bitter finish. PALATE: meidum-light body with moderate carbonation. no astringency. OVERALL: a very nice hybrid from an American IPA and a Witbier.

Bottle at home, 28th February 16. Pours a deep blood red, rim of lacing. Aroma is a heady mix of raspberries, cherry jam, slight funk, delicious. Taste is raspberry forward, integrated with crushed cherry, damp oak, barrel, slight sweetness, and a sour finish. Mouth feel is unusually full for the style, coating the tongue. Very impressive
