500ml can <br> 6.2% ABV <br> Canned On: July 3, 2018 <br> Yonge Eglinton Centre LCBO Outlet (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)<br> $3.75 <br> August 3, 2018 <br> The beer pours a hazed light peach colour with a snow white generous rocky head that dissipates very slowly. The aromas are light biscuit malt and very strong papaya and passion fruit notes. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour sticks to the sweet side with the fruity notes of tropical fruit shining through. There is very little bitterness in the finish. The beer is dangerously drinkable for a 6.2% IPA.

473ml can<br> 7.00% ABV<br> Canned On: June 24, 2020<br> LCBO Outlet #649 (Milton, Ontario, Canada - Sobey's Plaza)<br> November 23, 2020<br> $4.50<br> The look and smell of the beer is that or orange juice as it’s a nice opaque orange colour with a very short-lived head, despite a heavy pour. Again, the aroma is all oranges with a hint of perfumey hops and yeast. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with a lot of carbonation. The flavour is very much orange juice as well with hints of grass and hops. There is a belly warming alcohol presence in the sense you feel it, but don’t taste it. It smells and tastes good, but not what I want in a beer.
