Bottle thanks to Matt! Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a nice citrus note with some sweet grains and biscuit backing. Flavor is a bit more laid back with light citrus, light grains and a hint of pine.

Part of their mixed 6-pack, summer sampler 2013 at the LCBO. The first time I had this pack, I thought this was their IPA, which I already had and had the same colour of can. After chugging them, I had to buy this pack again - which is no problem, as these are pretty good. Pours a golden-amber colour with a big frothy warm cap, great retention and foamy lace. Not completely filtered with tiny particles everywhere. Great citrus aromas of oranges, grapefruits and then, other tropical fruits. The hop is the main thing in the taste as well, just covering the grainy malt. Mildly dry finish, so a normal Pale Ale, but has everything needed here. Goes down very well.

Can: Poured a copper color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of light citrus notes with light dry caramel malt notes. Taste is a mix of citrus malt with some biscuit malt with dry finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Easy drinking with well balanced sweetness thought hops punch is missing.

Can. Well poop. I thought I had the IPA, not the PA. Pours clear amber with a humongous off-white creamy head that slowly dissipates with nice lacing. Aroma is caramel, cigarette butts, pine. Flavor is the same, medium sweet with a light bitterness. Notes of grass and metal as well. Medium body.

Refrigerated can from JoePeesie poured into a shaker. I think I shook the can because I made a mess on the counter. Pours beautiful light orange with big bright white head that dissapates quickly. Some lacing, medium body, medium carbonation, and very light citrus aroma. Taste is citrus and light bitter finish. Very easy to drink, very refreshing, if this had a bit more taste it would go from good to great, but still a good outdoor summer time drink.

Can from Malt & Vine. Pours golden amber/light copper - or something like that with a slight white head. Nice firm citrus/floral aroma. Med body. Flavor is citrus/floral over some nicely roasted malt. Finish is firmly bitter. Just excellent.
