This hopped up amber brew is inspired by classic West Coast India Pale Ales. But our IPL is fermented like a lager. The result, a pithy grapefruit bitterness with notes of tropical fruit and citrus of an IPA and the clean balanced finish of a lager.

A hazed Dark amber ale with a thin lacing off white head. In aroma, pleasant biscuit malt with grassy floral hops, light resinous grassy character, nice. In mouth, a nice crisp biscuit malt with grassy floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light mineral notes, very decent. On tap at Caplan sky’s, Terminal 3, YYZ.

Tallboy can from LCBO in Ottawa. Hazy amber pour with thin fizzy head. Crisp lemon hoppy lager aroma - good. Taste is crisp pine hops with a lot of malt too. Not as exciting as some other IPLs I've had but not bad.

On tap at VCBW Festival, pours a hazy orange with a small white head. Nose and flavour of skunky herbal notes and a prominent astringency. Not very pleasant at all. Not too good.

341 ml bottle. (5.3% ABV) Pours a hazy dark amber-orange with a large, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that laces. Mild caramel malt aroma with grain and wood. Sweet flavour of grapefruit, caramel malt, pine and grass with a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Meh.

Super hazy copper and bronze coloured body with a definite orange glow and a ridiculously large and microfoamed five centimetre tall tan head - very nice looking indeed. Aroma of alcohol, cardboard, pale malt, hop pellets, earth, funk and a bit of stale malt - odd. Medium-bodied; Chewy cereal and grain flavours of malt at first with a bit of a cardboard bite and some stale hop flavours showing only a touch of citrus flavours and not much else. Aftertaste shows a little cardboard and cereal flavour from the malt with a bit of alcohol bite and not much else - fairly mild and not inspired. Overall, a pretty dull beer with no hop flavours, no depth in flavours or complexity and just a stale malt flavour. I sampled this 625 mL bottle purchased from Marche Des Sauveurs in Montreal, Quebec, Canada on 20-September-2014 for CA$5,29 sampled at home in Washington on 26-December-2014.

Cask at the Beer Academy, Toronto. Hazy amber with a thin white head; fresh leafy hop aroma; well balanced with a bready body, and some candied nut flavours; and a chewy finish.

Mettons que je reste sur ma soif avec celle-ci... La présentation est invitante, audacieuse, pas le contenu ;(

Slightly hazy amber, slightly earthy fruity hop character. Earthy and slightly woody. Lean and crisp, dry finish with more earthy character.

Draught at Malone’s Urban Drinkery, Vancouver, 5.3% ABV
Hazy dark amber color with medium sized compact head. Mild aroma, light malt and hop, some stale water. Dry caramel flavor; the mouthfeel is round and smooth; strong bitterness with a good quantity of hop resins, not much fruity. Some yeast heaviness in the final.
Could as well be an ale; pleasant but a bit dirty.
