If you've been on social media lately, you may have noticed something strange happened at one of Montreal's most iconic landmarks: Orange Julep appeared to be turning yellow.

While it sparked plenty of speculation, the bold visual takeover was actually a clever April Fools' stunt, turning an "orange" icon into a lemon to introduce the real new citrus in town: Flying Fish, a lemon flavoured beer beverage now making waves in Quebec.

Just as we collectively shake off winter and start daydreaming about patios, barbecues, and breezy summer nights, Flying Fish is the new drink that should be on your radar.

This lemon flavoured beer beverage takes what you love about beer and amps up the fruity, refreshing factor by adding a twist of pressed lemon flavour to every can.

Originally from South Africa, Flying Fish has now arrived in Quebec where its unexpected taste and unique flavour profile are sure to shake up one of Canada's largest beer markets.

If you're the kind of person who's always on the lookout for something different, then Flying Fish might be what you're after.

Lighter than a regular beer, Flying Fish is a sweet and smooth alternative that promises to be both fun, surprising, and a natural fit for whatever summer brings to your social calendar.

Flying Fish is now available in 6 pack bottles, 12 x 355mL can pack and a single 473mL can at participating retailers across Quebec.
