Commercial Description:
A beer of inherent contradiction. This heavy weight of the beer world is strikingly delicate with a white gold appearance. The light fruity aroma dominates the initial confrontation; lychee, kiwi and passionfruit all prevail with subtle nuances of cherry and strawberry. Don’t be fooled however by this smooth medium bodied ale. As it trickles down your throat as this wolf in sheep’s clothing begins to grow teeth. The bite comes as the bitterness builds and endures no matter how hard the malty sweetness of the alcohol tries to tame this ferocious beast.

IPA molto gradevole... forse troppo filtrata... al naso si sente l’utilizzo del nelson sauvin e in bocca è piuttosto maltata oltre ke amara

Clear, yellow, sparkling beer with moderate, white head; aroma is plenty of citruslike fruitness and floral hops, most refreshing; thin mouthfeel, medium carbonation; refreshing flavor of citrus and plenty of bitter hops. A nice IPA, but i´m not sure if "nice" is just what the brewers had wanted to make.

Bottle. Like the labelling. Bubbly hazy gold-orange. Sharp fruity notes and hops in the aroma. Fairly strong grassy hops in the aroma. Very prominent grapefruit and citrus notes. Kind of bland, mildly bitter finish. Not a plain IPA, though the extremities it does have aren’t ideal for me. Pretty good overall.

330ml from LCBO. I found this one very similar to the Rogue Yellow snow IPA. Pours very light yellow with a small white head. Fruity hop aroma and taste is big on grapefruit. Body a bit thin for the flavours.

Pours dark straw with a slight bit of haze, bit of white lacing. Grapefruit and peachy aromas, taste is mainly resin and pith with only a bit of pale malt to build the body. Long dry finish.

330 ml bottle from LCBO. Pours a cloudy yellow gold with small white head. Aroma is very hoppy: citrus, floral and a little earthy; some light pale malt too. Taste is also pretty big and similarly hoppy with a light spiciness too. Nice and hoppy but lack of maltiness leaves it feeling a little watery. Long bitter finish. Good, not great.
