Poured from a 473ml can.
Pours a very hazy yellow/orange with a thin white head/no lacing.
A tasty NE style Pale Ale with a mild hop background.
Overall a nice easy drinking beer, lucky to get a single can here in BC from a good friend.

Appearance - Pours a hazy apricot with two fingers of bubbly white head.

Smell - tropical and hint of piney hops, hint of pine resin, pineapple, orange and grapefruit peel, bready malts, and earthy yeast.

Taste - Tropical and hint of piney hops but mainly leaning towards the tropical hops. The pine resin is very light. The pineapple makes its presence followed by the subtle orange and grapefruit peel. The bready malts and earthy yeast finish the brew off.

Mouthfeel - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Finishes smooth with the tropical fruits and hops lingering.

Overall - A quaffable APA that has a pleasant tropical fruit aroma and taste. I was hoping for a little more from the tropical fruits but this is quite the sessionable brew.

473ml can - a 'NE Pale Ale', and one half of a twin release called Cloak & Dagger. Don't ask me why I'm starting with this one.

This beer pours a hazy, medium banana yellow colour, with four fingers of puffy, rocky, and mildly bubbly eggshell white head, which leaves some random sudsy island chain pattern lace around the glass as it quickly dissipates.

It smells of dank pine resin, some edgy orange, white grapefruit, and lemon citrus rind, gritty and grainy cereal malt, some hard water flintiness, and more leafy, weedy, and grassy green hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy pale malt, a muddled domestic citrus fruitiness, some damp minerality, and more floral, herbal, and piney verdant hoppiness.

The carbonation is fairly tame in its laid-back frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, with a wee airy creaminess seeping in once things warm up a tad at this particular point in the game. It finishes off-dry, the malt and juicy citrus essences predominating.

Overall - this comes across as an affable enough version of the style, nice and frooty, with a balanced drinkability. Not quite as potent as its moniker might suggest, but a fine tipple on yet another sunny and warm Alberta summer day.
