Aroma: tropical fruits, flowery, peachy, quite different from the Skate version.
Taste: along the same lines, flowery, a bit citrusy.
Overall: interesting and quite unique.

Greyish opaque, bubbly head. Medium malt, sort of a bluebery hop note. Medium body and just moderate bitterness.

473 ml can. Pours an opaque yellowish white with short head. Aromas of melons, pithy lemon, a bit of pine and a lot of wheaty malts. Flavors follow same but hops come across as Lupulin powder. Nopeβ¦

Poured from 473mL can (pkg May 07, 2025). Nice dank tropical Nelso Sauvin with wine tang. Soft, light creamy texture. Balanced, enjoyable, maybe a touch dissipated on the finish.

Hazy and quite pale. Bubbly head. Light pine, some herbaceous hop as wellβ¦thyme and sagey things. Fairly bitter. Malt is sweet and somewhat weak but I like that hop character.

Poured from 355mL can. Clear blonde with small white head. Bland rice character, lager yeast, feint grass and tropical hops. Odd combo, average.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 01/04/2025). Opaque pale yellow with small white head. Aroma is dank and weedy. Taste is the same, but softer with some light creaminess in the texture. Although I'm rating them the same, I think Four Winds Blue Dream edges this one out by a hair.

On tap at The Magnet, pours an opaque yellow with a small white head. Aroma is absurdly dank, with tons of the terpenes upfront to combine with the pot-like hops β yeah, thatβs insane. Flavour is not as intense as I expected from the nose, but is still mega-dankβI canβt tell apart the dank hops from the terpenes but they work cohesively. Itβs a hazy, so there is some chalkiness I could do without but at least no hopburn. Fun experiment.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 11/02/2025). Clear gold with white head. Nice grassy hops, clean and crisp, well made. Enjoyable.
