Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

June 20, 2022<br> LCBO Outlet #649 (Milton, Ontario, Canada – Sobey’s Plaza)<br> 473ml can <br> 5.0% ABV <br> Canned On: March 21, 2022<br> $3.95<br> The beer pours a lightly hazed orange gold colour with a fluffy white head that lasts mere seconds before receding to absolutely nothing. The aroma is weak grassy malt, clementines, and light funk. The mouthfeel is light bodied with slightly above average carbonation. The flavour is light grains, light clementine, and a light tart finish. The lack of a head is disappointing and really ruined the re4st of the experience for me.
