Tap at Volo. Cloudy yellow-old colour. Thin white head. Low carbonation. Very little aroma. A faint whiff of pale wheat malt and a little bit of lightly spicy hoppiness. Lightly grainy and some light citrusy hoppiness but this is restrained as well. It’s a decent brew - but could definitely use some more aroma hops. A bit of that lingering peppery/herbal hoppiness that I like. It’s not mind-blowing - but it does the job.

Pale yellow with almost no carbonation. Slight sweet malts, with vegetal notes. Easy drinking.

On tap at Volo. Pours a lightly cloudy dull yellow with virtually no head. Aroma is citric hops and grains. Taste has mango and lemon with some graininess. Virtually no carbonation. Modest bitterness in finish. Decent.

UPDATED: OCT 29, 2012 July 29, 2012 - Toronto Festival Of Beers. Murky light banana yellow with a decent lasting frothy white head. Sweet tropical fruit malt body, very yeasty and estery, a decent amount of fresh grassy bitterness to tone it done - pretty solid, 7+. Taste follows - solid body, decent carbonation, medium tropical fruit finish. I like it.

On tap at TFOB. Appearance: Milky orange/yellow. Aroma: mango, lemon, yeasty, good citrus nose. Flavour: Good amount of hops, spice, lemon, mango, rye and a great malty finish. Lovely.

[4537-20120621] Tap. Fresh leafy hops aroma has a fresh lemon-orange kick. Hazy, brown orange body with a quick foamy white head. Citrus lemon orange hops bitter flavour has a lingering almost dry sour finish. Medium body. Tasty. (7/3/7/4/14) 3.5

2012-06-21. Hazy dark orange, small beige head. 3+ Flavour has a nice citrus character up front, but an odd sort of grainy character in the second wave. Modest bitterness, light leafy green hops in the background that grow slowly. Sort of grapefruit seed like pithyness. 6+ Modest aroma, pithy leafy citrus hop character. 6+ Average bodied palate. Finish is increasingly dry and bitter as it goes, not pleasantly so. Nice elements to it but I found it a bit rough overall. OCB Week Tap Takeover at Volo, Toronto.
