On tap at Brewing August, pours a hazy bright golden blonde with a medium white head. Aroma brings out dank hops, some stone fruit, and biscuity malt. Flavour reveals a very nice piney hop character upfront, with a thin biscuity malt base that just provides structure. Really like that piney dry hop character. Real nice.

On tap at Brewing August, pours a clear bright pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out plenty of pissy citra hops, some grass, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is crisp and clean, with a nice grassy hop character, some cat piss, and crisp biscuity malt. Clean, well-hopped and bright. Well-made.

Pale and just a slight haze. Nice bready malt and a herbaceous hop character that doesn't present as citra (thankfully). It's not bad.

Slight haze. Darkish golden colour. Bubbly head. Bright fruity hop aroma, fairly bitter, a nice grapefruit bitterness. Clean pale malt base lets the hops shine.

Slight haze, pale, kind of mushroomy type nose. Again a decent malt base, some lemony type notes, finishing more in cannabis country but muted. Seems like it's well made but not really my pocket of hop expression.

Poured from 355mL can (pkg Aug 2021). Cloudy orangey pink with small white head. Raspberry, mild dry hopping, touch of lacto. A bit subdued, but better than expected.

Poured from 473mL can. Hazy gold with small white head. Some light bread malt, light pine and earth hops. Meh.

Slight haze, pale colour. On the nose, not too bad, with a bit of fruitiness. Light, pale, limited bitterness. Vague fruitiness but something isn't hitting.

473mL can, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Nose brings out earthy and piney hops, and some old cardboardy notes (despite this being fresh). Flavour has a strange hop character, with herbal hops, some cardboard, and bready malt. That's not a pleasant hop expression. Weak and amateur. Not good.
