The beer pours a slightly hazed golden colour with an off-white head that settles to a thick film which leaves a decent amount of lacing down the side of the glass. The aroma is grassy malts, earthy hops, and a hint of grapefruity citrus notes. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is grains, light dishsoap, and citrus flavours. A decent IPA. -

The beer pours a translucent rust colour with a generous tan coloured head which recedes quickly, but leaves a long lasting film on top of the beer. The aroma is cereal grains with a strong berry presence and hints of light citrus and floral hops. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is berries and cream with notes of citrus and grass. The finish is more tart than bitter. -
