On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is restrained, with a dry, earthy character upfront and dry bread. Flavour is soft and dry, with an earthy bready character and gentle bitterness from the hops. Dry, bready finish. Not very interesting—pretty lame hop expression.

650 ml bottle. Pours a hazy yellow amber with moderate head. Aromas of coriander, earthy bananas and wheaty malts. Flavors follow same with a bit of white pepper. Lacking a a bit of depth as a Belgian classic but pretty much right on IMHO. Nice.

Cloudy gold with a small white head. Flowery tropical notes. Tropical notes, a bit muddy, touch of sour notes. Passion peeks out more than any other fruit but a bit indistinct.

500mL bottle, pours a cloudy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is full of kiwi and other tropical fruits—I don't get the passionfruit. There's some tart wine barrel notes too and floral hops. Flavour is tart and fruity, but rather jumbled and of puzzling character. I don't really get any specific fruits, nor a wine character. This is puzzling. Not bad but it doesn't seem to really nail what it's going for. Okay.
