Tall can at Brian's. Pours a hazy golden with a weak white head. Aroma is green apples. Similar taste. Meh.

Can. The hop character is, I don't know, maybe a big funky. Has a nice bitterness, but there isn't that much brightness to the hop character. It's ok, but it needs to be brighter.

Tasting at Brian's, can
Cloudy golden colour. Fruity aroma, a bit of apple too. Off-dry, some veggies, not very good.

16 oz can. Aroma is citrus peel, passionfruit, pineapple, orange creamsicle, pine. Pours hazy golden with a one finger bone-white head with great retention. Taste is lightly bittersweet with flavors matching the aroma, along with a caramel note; not as impressive as the aroma. Good to almost great.

16 oz can poured. Nice looking can, and an interesting brew here to try. Curious what to expect from a fresh hop winter IPA. Really tasty up front. Cloudy golden orange pour. Smooth front, hop constant. Orange and pine, both pretty soft. The piney constant has a winter reminder, which may just be because I know it's a winter themed brew, but it certainly gives off the seasonal impression. Flavorful brew here. Really like this one. Matchless never misses.

16 ounce can. Pours a clear orange color with a small white head. A big fruity nose. Smooth, overall pretty light, oranges, fresh robust hops, mild bitterness. Very clean, a bit oily. Great beer.
