Bottle at Chriso tasting (from Beermongers - Portland) 18/11/12. Slightly hazed light amber. Nose comprises orange, pine, citrus notes, a little in the way of burnt notes. Tastes of light floral tones, hops, touch mango, grapefruit, pine. Medium bodied with soft carbonation leading to a bitter finish. A really decent IPA!

2013-01-12, draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver, 8-4-8-5-16=41
Hazy golden color; creamy head. The aroma is hoppy, very fresh, with notes of toffee. The mouthfeel is very smooth, semi-dry; good malt and toffee flavor, with a very fresh and refreshing hopping. Long final, balanced.
Excellent.
2012-08-08, bottle from Central City Liquor Store, Surrey, 8-4-7-5-15=39
Hazy light amber color; medium sized head. Expressive aroma, harmonious citrus fruits mix. Very good toffee flavor, lean body, smooth mouthfeel; fresh hopping, with loads of soft resins and nice fruity touch; long final; overall, powerful but balance and well drinkable.
Excellent.

Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours orange amber with a creamy/bubbly white head. For me the aroma is both citrus and resin. Med + body. Frothy carb. Flavor is resin, floral and citrus. It’s lush. So good it could be bottle conditioned. Every quaff is a dream. Finish is bitter, but not humongously so. Excellent ale.

650 ml bottle. Pours a copper orange with medium head. Aromas of spruce, orange and apricot. Hoppy but not over the top. Fruity flavors (orange and grapefruit) with a bit of caramel and lots of malts. Very nice.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a cloudy / opaque blood orange with a small white head. Aroma of pungent resinous hops, tropical fruits (mandarins, mango, pineapple and grapefruit), and a big malt backing. Flavour of resinous hops, grapefruit, bitter orange peel and sufficient malt backing. Dry and bitter. Delicious IPA.
