On tap. Dark straw colour. Bright citrus nose, lots grapefruit. Mild carbonation. Light citrus notes. Liquid consistency ;). Nice hoppy bite but less than an average IPA. Fantastic beer would try again.

355ml can poured into tulip 28/6/2016
A clear golden liquid with a few slow bubbles popping up here and there, a thumbs width of short lived foam leaves a couple random spots of lace
S perfume, butterscotch, lots of citrus and over ripe mango, apple sauce, and a little thrills gum, an odd mix but it works
T some sweet grains come out and a little spicy hops I didn't pick up on the nose, maybe a little lemon, differs from the nose but still pretty good
M light bodied but well carbonated, a mild bitter bite, a little slick on the palate, citrus rind linger
O not a bad beer but nothing overly exciting either, worth drinking but not worth seeking out, ect, ect....
I like how 5% has become the new session standard, somewhere in the UK Ding in having a stroke, (BA vets might get that one)

355ml can, a collaboration with Calgary's new Trolley No. 5 Brewery (clang clang clang went the...oh forget it), and obviously an (un)official brew of the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth, yeah?
This beer pours a clear, bright medium copper amber colour, with three fat-cat fingers of puffy, somewhat rocky, and sort of chunky ecru head, which leaves some layered gear chain lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of underripe orange, lemon, and white grapefruit rind, grainy and faintly biscuity pale malt, a twinge of dry yeast, and some plain leafy, weedy, and grassy green hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy pale malt, a further bit of breakfast cereal graininess, muddled domestic citrus flesh, a suggestion of aerosol pepper spice, and more gentle leafy, earthy, and somewhat floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly active in its supportive and sometimes playful frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and mostly smooth, just a wee hoppy edginess perhaps tripping things up a bit here. It finishes off-dry, the varied malt goodness not seeing much in the way of a lingering hop charge.
Overall, a pleasant enough so-called session ale, with the hop bitterness kept at multiple round levels, fer sure, pardner. And not that I'm complaining about the standard ABV, but shouldn't it be south of 5%, to ensure that all those sun-drenched patios and all that scorching asphalt don't creep up too quickly on the serious Stampede imbiber?
