Hazy pink grapefruit color, with aromas of fresh strawberries, ripe blackberries, melon, and tropical fruits. Subtle, but present strawberry, blackberry, and mango notes, a very mild candied fruit sweetness, and a pleasing citrus hoppy punch to finish. With an effervescent mouthfeel, and 7.0% ABV, CFB is guaranteed to make those hard winds from Canada feel just a little less so.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: pink to amber color with a quarter finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated inward to leave a small cap which floated around and separated into oblivion as I continued to sip
Aroma: strawberries, blackberries and star fruit-like hoppy tones, subtle sweetness - sugary something? Hmmm...then some grapefruity tones all those fruits bring about a certain tartness
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to a fine tart to sweet quality while an undertone of bitterness from the hops slides in underneath; finishes with tart and sweet berries & grapefruity with a light bitterness
Texture: medium bodied? Yeah, I think so, maybe a touch over; leaning towards being a sipper; light smoothness and invasive bitterness and some sharp tart tones seem like they're about to take out my tongue but some sweetness from those noted sugars in the aroma balances it all out
Overall: now that my friends is a Sour IPA! Bam!
