This American IPA is named after Deception Bay, once thought to be the original name of River John - Tatamagouche's neighbour. Brewed with Canadian 2-Row Malt, bittered with Magnum hops, and then hopped plentifully with Huell Melon, Mandarina Bavaria, and Citra adding seriously juicy flavour and aromas.

Amber and yeasty, with way too much head. There’s a bit of mushroomy note, has a mellow earthy hop note. Similar palate - more earthy hop notes. The malts are pretty good, balanced nicely, though the bitterness is a bit light. The hops don’t show through too much in the finish, which is a bit of a shame, but there does seem to be a sense of balance here.

On tap at Nofthumberland Links. Pours a clear amber gold with a tan head that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has a good amount of pine with grass supporting and a backbone of grains and biscuit. Flavor has bitter pine supported by resin and a grain backbone.
