Can: Poured an amber color ale with a medium foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops with some light bitter notes that are noticeable. Taste is a mix of dry malt notes with some hoppy citrusy notes with medium bitter aftertaste. Body is about average with good carbonation. Old school IPA with too much bitterness.

Can from the LCBO. Cloudy pale gold under a small lingering white head. Nose has pronounced citrus, stone fruit, and tropical fruit with some grain and very light malt. Flavour follows with a very light sweet malt base supporting a medium+ bitter grapefruit and mango middle moving to a peach tartness and a touch of minerals. Mouth is medium and silky with average carbonation and a lengthy bitter finish. 7+/3+/7/3+/15-

Cann at home, 22nd July 17. Pours slight haze. Aroma is pine and tropical fruit. Taste is fruity, some bitterness, the Vermont yeast adds a strange dimension, not sure I liked it. Not a bad IPA though.
