Dark brown, with a fairly thick head. The aroma comes across thin, maybe a bit of roast, but lacking in other key stylistic elements. On the palate, it's better. The body is good, and there's a healthy dose of residual sugar. There's a light roastiness, not really espresso level, but it's a good coffee taste that balances well with the base beer.

On tap at Icons Sports Bar and Grill YVR. Hazy gold with a one finger white cap that lingers. Nose is citrus and tropical fruit with some melon and stone fruit. Light melon sweetness with a medium - pineapple bitterness. Mouth is medium- and creamy with slightly soft carbonation.

Pours a rasp-accented hue, with some haze. On the palate, the peach shows first, then the berry. Light diacetyl kicks inβ¦berry beers are not immune from this. The base sour is lightly acidic.

Poured from 473mL can (stickered 07-11-24). Dark brown with small beige head. Aroma has lots of suntan lotion coconut. Taste is a really bland base chocolate malt with artificial coconut flavouring overtop. Disappointing, verging on drain pour. (note: ended up drain pouring it...)

Amber colour, with a thin head. Sort of a nothing aroma. Vague amber malts, low bitterness. This aims for the Dos Equis / Victoria pocket of dark lager, and it's not that far off. Out of the Mexican vacation context, however, you realize those kinds of beers aren't actually pleasurable.
