L: Pours a slightly hazy straw gold color with a small white head and some spotty lacing.
S: Weedy and floral hops, a slightly sweet aroma and some cracker malt, overall, a very weak aroma.
T: Not much flavor, some malt, some carbonation, a little bit of hop, but overall very flavorless, tastes a lot like carbonated water, some bitterness but not much.
F: Light body, prickly carbonation.
O: Its a nice looking beer, but other than that it is rather flavorless.

355ml can - another vocationally-themed offering from this Calgary brewing concern, with the name saying it all.
This beer pours a hazy, medium apricot amber colour, with four fingers of puffy, rocky, and somewhat silken off-white head, which leaves some splattered chunky lace around the glass as it rather slowly seeps out of sight.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, a lesser spicy wheatiness, some zingy orange and white grapefruit rind, a hint of estery yeastiness, and more leafy, herbal, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is semi-sweet, grainy and bready caramel malt, wet Wheat Thins, muddled domestic citrus flesh, further indistinct tropical fruit notes, a faded yeasty character, and some plain earthy, weedy, and floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is quite timid in its insouciant-seeming frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, with a wee airy creaminess evolving as things warm up a tad around here. It finishes off-dry, the mixed malt and exotic fruitiness the lingering order of the moment.
Overall - this comes across almost like a wheat version of a NE-style pale ale, what with the hazy and mixed frooty essences. Crisp, and easy to put back, now this is what one might call a patio (friendly) beer, but I'm not going to, well, just because, that's why!
