Nice golden color with a clear, bubbly appearance, pours with a finger worth of loose, sudsy white head that had a better then expected amount of retention to it and left a slightly watery, patchy lacing on the glass.
Aroma is clean with orange citrus aroma to it, and some faintly skunky herbal hop notes to it.
Nice, rather fruity forward with a clean citrus hops with an orange, almost canned Mandarin flavor to it accompanying a lightly herbal under-tone.
Highish carbonation to it with a lighter body then its flavor would suggest with a good a mount of lightly toasted, biscuty amber malt flavor to its base.
Finish is a weedy/ herbal hop flavor with a slightly flinty mineral quality to it, that starts off mildly bitter but definitely increases in bitterness as it warms leaving a lingering weedy aftertaste.

650ml bottle - they've gone a tad retro with the label on this one, and it's cool to see that they have no problem illustrating a cat smoking a blunt, given the impending Canadian law amendments on the matter.
This beer pours a clear, bright medium golden yellow colour, with two fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and fizzy dirty white head, which leaves some random splattered lace around the glass as it lazily dissipates.
It smells of dank pine resin, bready and doughy cereal malt, a bit of hard water stoniness, and more leafy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy caramel malt, mild domestic citrus rind, some faint earthy yeastiness, a subtle toasty essence, and further understated leafy, musty, and floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-satisfying frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and generally smooth, with perhaps a soupcon of roastiness not paying heed to the local ordinances here. It finishes off-dry, the malt pretty much the only lingering game in town.
Overall - this one comes across as pretty much just a plainer version of their Full Moon, with a touch of toasted character. I was hoping for a more robust, um, flavour component, one that matched the marketing angle. Oh well, back to our original programming, I suppose.
