473ml can. Pours a clear gold with a medium, frothy, long lasting, white head that leaves thick curtains of lace. Mild aroma of grainy pale malt, generic citrus, floral and weedy hops. Sweet flavour of grainy pale malt, grapefruit, cantaloupe, floral and light piney hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light to medium body with a slightly oily texture and soft carbonation. Meh, a bit disappointing. Boring and a bit thin.

Grapefruit and pine. Golden pour with ok head. Very malt heavy old school IPA. Light bitter finish with some lingering tang. Can.

Smells of juicy hops, has a light gold-copper body with very little foam. Flavour is chewy sweet hops with some sour hints. Mouthfeel is full enough though a bit sugary. It's an okay IPA though not too exciting.

Bottle from Legacy LRS, Vancouver
Hazy golden to light amber color. Mild aroma of piney and herbaceous hops, hint of spruce. Dry mouthfeel, with a lean grainy base, light body. Then some hop resins and moderate herbaceous finish.
I would call this a Pale Ale rather than the self described IPA, it's good with food, but the malt is distracting and the hops no so bright, so not very modern.

Bottle - Onion and weedywith some earth. Clear gold with a decent white head. Malty, Weedy and earthy notes with a touch of bitterness. No a real fan of this.
