Smells of decent hops with some malt in there, has good foam on a clear gold body. Flavour is bitter hops with some sweetness. Nice oiliness on the mouth. A serviceable IPA. On tap at Fort Langley Beer & Food fest.

Hazy light amber color. Resiny hops, a bit sugary aroma, light citrus. Caramelly flavor, toffee, a bit buttery, some citrus peel.
Not too bad, but a rough and old concept.

Light amber. Not much head. On the nose this is reaaallly chewy. When you're chewier than Red Racer IPA, you're starting to bend time, and not in a good way. It tastes better than it smells - still quite chewy and dated in that way, but with a lot of bitterness. No particular hop brightness. If they're aiming American, then I'd say it needs to be modernized. If aiming "English", well that starts with the yeast.

Tall can at Matt's. Pours a hazy deep golden with a white head. Aroma is caramely and candied citruses. Similar taste. Good old school IPA.

473mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is very caramely and light resinous hops. Flavour is likewise on the malty side for an IPA, with lots of caramel, subdued resinous hops, and English bready malt. Too malty for my tasting, but it's inoffensive.
