@ St. Augustine's, Vancouver. Light amber, without much head. Earthy, touch of orange on the nose. Has a toasty hop note, and the malts are a little bit sticky and chewy. Decent - I can see that they are aiming differently with this one, and maybe awa

Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a near clear gold body that supports a dirty white head of foam. The aroma offers up punchier grapefruit and tangelo and then softer smelling notes of cantaloupe and mango.The taste delivers juicy tangelo, clementine and cantaloupe blended with bitter grapefruit and spicy danky hoppiness. It sweetens up some to midway as the hops turn a little more resiny creating a pleasing balance. Solid IPA.

Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a clear gold body that supports a thin white head of foam. The aroma offers up pine hops twisted around some malt nuanced grapefruit. The taste delivers malts, some well integrated pine hops and then cantaloupe and cantaloupe sweetened bitter grapefruit. Oh. This works with a pleasing punchy hop bitterness grounded nicely in the thin base malts and fruity hoppiness. Nice.

Astringent off flavours, overhopped, not malty enough. This beer was just made using poor brewing practices. Monkey paw SD.

Low tartness, quite fruity, mostly pineapple for me. Okay beer overall, but not great for the style. Monkey Paw SD.
