Hello ducky. Pale green-goldy color with light haze small head. Aroma very muted, pale fruit. Taste very dry - tight actually - grassy herbal hop, light perfumey florals, some mildly sweet pale fruit, notably pear and grape sugar. Palate is a bit parching, demandingly dry in a not great way.

Bottle shared at Stouts. Every so often a beer is better than expected, as it is this time. Hazy yellow, soapy head. Hoppy aroma. Hoppy like a pale, a C-citrus hop taste. Good drinkability, and more of a pale than a wheat ale.

On tap at c’est what. Hazy golden pour, big frothy white head. Big citrus hoppy aroma with very very little wheat character. Lively carb, solid mouthfeel. Very bitter finish, solid pine, and citrus. This is an ipa mesquerading as a wheat ale. Reminds me alot of great lakes miami weisse.

On tap at Gig’s: A hazey pale straw color with a puffy cap. Aroma is intense grapefruit-citrus with bisquity malts in the background. Flavour has big PacNW hopping (Greapefruit/citrus) balances with dry biscuity wheat malts, light fruity esters.Dry crisp finish with a nice hop bite. This is an interesting mutation of a Berliner weiss with PacNW pale ale - pale ale fruity eaters with weiss dryness and APA citrus - nice sipping ale

Tap, pours a nice golden, aroma is very hoppy and the flavour is really the right amount of hops. this beer to me was an IPA, maybe a wheat IPA but it didnt taste much like a wheat ale to me. As an IPA this one is quality, recommend a taste

On tap at Baker Street. Pours pale golden in colour, slight haze, big white head. Nice slightly sweet, hint of citrus and tartness. Not bad.

On draught at The Ship, Hamilton ON. Only slightly cloudy golden, with a frothy white cap. Very bright lemony nose with a nice punch of floral hops. Medium bitterness, little tangy sweetness, tart, cirtic. Light bodied, but full of flavour and complexity. Very enjoyable.

UPDATED: JUL 30, 2012 pretty impressed. this was tangy bitter and citrus taste to it. Surprised by the amount of citrus hops in here. On draft.

On tap at Dominion on Queen. Slightly cloudy light amber colour. Aroma has notes of grass, spruce and some malts. Nice refreshing flavour.

Nice bitter taste. Golden cloudy. Smells tangy, wheaty. There’s a really bitter tinge to it. enjoyable hefeweizen but it doesn’t have the soft carbonation and soft palate feel that many of them have but I like it. Actually kind of tastes more like an APA. On tap at volos.
