Review #700 <br> 550ml draught <br> 5.9% ABV <br> I tried this beer on tap on October 7, 2011 at "C'est What" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer was a golden orange in colour with a thin snow white creamy head. The aroma was pineapple, citrus, and grains. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was tropical fruit sweetness and some grassy maltiness. Went down very easily for a 5.9% ABV beer. <br> <br> Note: After finishing the beer, the bartender informed that she also thought it was pineapple we smelled and tasted, but it was in fact mango and peach.
