Can big thanks to Steve. It pours cloudy pinkish - purple with a decent whiteish head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, tangy, loads of raspberry and jammy fruits. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, tangy, zingy, sherbet, raspberry is the key player here, puckering, raspberry pip, sour candy and fruit puree. Lighter end of medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. A very easy going and approachable fruit beer.

330mL can on Icelandair (YVR-KEK), pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out dry piney hops out front in classic west coast fashion, with a crisp biscuity malt base. Flavour is very piney, with lots of dry piney hops upfront, some light woody resins, and crisp biscuity malt. Piney, dry mouthfeel, with a crisp finish. Well-made, no-nonsense pale.
