Brewed with Galaxy hops from Australia and Cascade from the American Northwest, providing a fantastic character of tropical fruits such as lychee and mango as well as fresh citrus.

Oct. 2017: 330 ml can, from Ales By Mail. ABV is 7.1%. Golden colour, large white head. Nice aroma of oranges and pine. Flavour of dust, stale orange marmalade, resin and very sharp and medicinal / metallic Galaxy hops. I am not a big fan of Galaxy.

On tap at the Polite Pig with Nora and Lucy. Pours a nice golden. Light scent of floral citrus. A fairly bitter aftertaste that lasts a while. More Pine than citrus.

Mild haze; lychee nose + light malt nose; a ton of passionfruit + kumquat; long green finish; light.
Cascade + Galaxy.

Way aroma - floral + fruit - but thin, fluffy, and grainy on the end. Out of balance and not worth the 7%. Unique, but maybe not in a good way.

Pours a hazy straw-orange with solid head and minimal lacing. Nose is muted. Herbal, grassy,and pine...sort of halfway between American and British IPA. Taste is up front bitter across the palate, and particularly on the front of the tongue, which I found odd. Some residual sweetness and malt for balance, but lacking flavor. The nose and flavor did not mesh well. Overall, just okay, and I found myself less and less excited about it with each subsequent sip.
