Pours a very hazy, yellow-orange, with smallish head. Aromas of tropical fruit and citrus. Flavor follows, with pretty smooth mouthfeel, light sweetness, and builds to a slightly bitter, pine-spruce hop finish. Really good!

Pour is a milky looking blonde with a large white head. Aroma is a muted sweet fruit hop with some pale malt. Flavor is a bit better with a lot of melon fruit and just a dash of white sugar sweetness. Decent beer probably not a hop forward as some but this was still decent.

Capped 500 ml from Cap Tap. Pours dark brown/black with a slight dark tan head that didn't endure for long. Aroma of very good coffee precedes earthy chocolate; arguably a vanilla hint. Oh so full bodied. Flavor is like food. Or at least the substance. Vanilla is important here, the coffee is somewhat reduce by the presence of the super smooth toasty malt, and the chocolate should permeates everything. It's not the best IS, but if they could add cherry and rum barrels it might well be. It is not dry, but not sticky. It is not hoppy, but it is reasonably bitter. Really nice ale!

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours hazy, near grapefruit gold with a head that’s foamy and white. Aroma is very fruity - mostly pale stone, but some tropical. Med + body. Flavor is juicy and fruity- some melon, something like passion fruit, and some citrus. Pale stone got lost. Juicily less than dry. Beautifully hoppy. At least moderately bitter. Great.

Tap at Tap Cap. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma of blueberry and tropicals. Med body. Flavor starts with blueberry. The mosaic is clearly present, but the tropicals don’t obscure the blueberry. Not entirely dry. Hoppy in a rather not-bitter way. Tasty and different.

My can has a different design, a lower ABV (6.8%), and says the hops are: Ekuanot, Citra, Mosaic. Otherwise, it has the same name. Pours a hazy, golden yellow, with smallish, but lasting head. Aroma of Juicy Fruit gum, some basement dankness. Flavor is grassy, a bit chalky, has loads of tropical fruit, some citrus, and a pinch of pine/spruce bitterness in the finish.
