Imagine you set sail for a three hour tour. Let's say from the port of Escondido (work with us here). The weather started getting rough. You're tiny ship (but not lunch, thankfully) was tossed. Long story short: You're marooned on a remote island somewhere near the Tropic of Thunder. The good news is that the Capt. Of the S.S. Stone and her brewing kit were among the small cast of colorful characters that survived the rough voyage with you. Mainstays Citra & Mosaic along with newcomer Cashmere hops are joined by their juicy tropical aromas of citrus, pineapple and coconut (try stringing all that together in a catchy tune). The rescue ship will find you all soon enough. For now, set aside the non-working cell phone and lack of social media (again, work with us here), kick back and revel in your moment of tropical island Lagoon serenity.

12oz can pours with a clear slightly paled gold colored body that supports a thin white head of foam. The modest aroma offers up vague mango as well as a bit of onion like dankness. The taste delivers a full taste experience with a pleasing sound hit of mango and onion and then increasing levels of garlic like yummy dankness. Well off in the background is a sense of lager yeastiness and faint echoes of lagery esters. This drinks fine.

Tall-er can from LCBO. Pours an average size frothy white head that sticks around and has a pale golden appearance. Some thick dirty lacing. Somewhat excessive carbonation. Fizzy and drying mouthfeel. Aromas of mild floral and citrus hops, a bit wheaty and grassy. Not bad.

Tall 568ml can that pours a bright, pale golden colour with a big slightly off-white frothy cap, decent stay and some foamy lacing. Big hoppy nose of citrus zest with mild grassiness. The mouthfeel is smooth, and somewhat dry in the finish - for a lager. The taste is hoppier as well for the style, and the citrus notes lingers. Hints of tropical fruits all-around. Like a good American Pale Ale, but smoother with the bottom lager fermentation. Well done !

Pours clear bright topaz with a frothy snowy head. Aroma delivers resiny hops, crisp fresh malt and tangy citrus. Flavor adds woody and bitter notes to the hops and a bit of tart pomme. Texture yields fair body and fizz. Beer thunder!
