Bottle. Cloudy, gold color. Really huge head. I can see why this is called "Hay Fever". That’s what it smells and tastes like.....hay.

Flight nitro pour at the brewery. Pours black with beige nitro head. Dry roasted malts on the nose. Flavour has fairly watered down roasted malts and cocoa. Profile is pleasant enough for the style.

Flight pour at the brewery. Pours mostly clear gold with a white head. Tons of tangy berries and citrus on the nose. Flavour has tangy berries, lemon sugar, tropical fruit; bright and sweet, but has some bitterness on the finish so it's not cloying. Thick-bodied, a bit oily. Very nice.

Cann from the lcbo. Hazy yellow pour with a huge white head. Aroma is light on the hop and wheat front. Both are present, but very light. Soft wheat, and bubblegum, and subtle citrus and pine resin. Mouth feel is nice and creamy, with a soft carb. Medium bitterness, banana undertones round out some citric grassy hoppiness.

473ml can. Hazy orange pour, with a large white head. Nice citrus, cereals are present and quite nice, mango an light pineapple. Mouth feel is full, and the carb is great. The finish is lightly to medium bitter, with more tropical fruit, and light cereals. Decent.

Murky orange pour, with a large off white almost beige head. First whiff is very sweet, and bready with alot of pine and citrus zest. Well... The sweetness faded as I let it warm. The hops are there, but you can tell the beer is old. The hops have gotten a little musty and earthy. The malts are spicy, with a little Belgian ale type fruity sweetness in the end. The alcohol is a little warming as it lets you know it’s there. Pretty good ..
