A- Ok this pours a crystal clear light golden tone with slightly pinkish undertones. The head is just slightly off white in nature and is super frothy and big time! Carbonation appears to be quite high but the bubbles overall lumber to the top and are fine looking. The lacing is quite incredible, with a plethora of sticky white foam clinging to the inside of my glass. Very nice overall!
S- I am getting plenty of citrus fruit, along with underlying notes of floral petals, orchard fruit pits, some dry grassy notes, unmalted barley kernels and a finish that is of fresh hop leafs. Clean crisp and dry is the best way to put it.....
T- This is incredibly like sweet bread crumbs in terms of the crystal and caramel character brought on by the malts. I also am getting hints of peach/nectarine fruits, yeast and an ever so tart citrus rind flavor that works its way into the finish, which is grassy dry, slightly fruity and of just a hint of floral hoppiness. I quite like it!
M/O- Light bodied, with plenty of velvety carbonation. The drinkability is high and I think this is exactly what it is meant to be....a flavorful Summertime patio brew! I recommend it and look forward to enjoying again!

473ml can - a cheeky nod to the real battle that this brewery had with the City of Calgary over the permits they had to get for their finally now open for business patio.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with four fingers of puffy, rocky, and sort of shiny bone-white head, which leaves some random chunky and webbed lace around the glass as it slowly sinks out of sight.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, a faint indistinct citrus fruitiness, subtle yeasty notes, and some very plain earthy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is bready and crackery pale malt, muddled tropical fruit, a hint of that black tea powder that accumulates in the holder, and more leafy, herbal, and piney verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is pretty laid-back in its clocked-out frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and generally smooth, with nothing really making a fuss at this particular juncture. It finishes off-dry, the malt showing some lingering backbone.
Overall - this is certainly a well-made, very easy-drinking pale ale, ISA, baby IPA, whatever, it's good. It may even inspire in me the motivation to go tidy up my own patio later this afternoon, um, evening, maybe tomorrow. Nah, who am I kidding, there's more beer to be had!
