(On tap @ Birreria Volo, Toronto, Jan 19/18) Pours lightly hazed medium pink. Aroma of sweet preserved cherries, almonds, savoury toasty notes, dried herbs. Flavour is light and watery, lightly tart cherry, not much going on. Rather light bodied and watery with slightly spritzy carbonation. Disappointing after the nose, which held some nice fruity character, to barely detect any fruit at all on the tongue. My least favourite of the Small Pony flight.

(On tap @ Birreria Volo, Toronto, Jan 19/19) Nearly clear dark gold pour. Notes of sweet-tart white wine, some malt, lots of buttery slightly toasty oak, lactic bite, vague fruit character. Medium bodied with relatively low carbonation. Not bad at all, tough to pick out the nature of some of the fruity notes and there's not so much funk, while I think the oak was a bit much for me, but it's still pretty drinkable.

(On tap @ Birreria Volo, Toronto, Jan 19/18) Hazy gold pour with a white ring. Notes of quite tart apricot and underripe nectarine, white wine, wet funk, fairly oaky, peach skin, some noyaux, finish is fairly dry with some lingering acidity. Light to medium body with soft carbonation. A bit overly acidic for me, masking a little of the fruitiness as a result. The Mosaic-hopped beer alongside conveyed as much pit fruit as this did but with better balance.

(On tap @ Birreria Volo, Toronto, Jan 19/18) Hazy gold with a white ring. Notes of ripe fruity hops, fuzzy peach candy, mango, melon, tangerine, leafy, super juicy on the tongue, light tart, fruit peels, lovely hop character, low bitterness. Medium bodied, slightly below average carbonation. Fantastic hopping played well with the base beer, this is one I could've drank a lot more of, just lacking some ultimate concentration in the finish to vault it into the top echelon.
