Exciting and provocative, India Pale Ale provides a stimulating assault on all senses. Our version of the IPA style possesses a deep golden hue that nearly winks at you from the glass. Extremely full-bodied, its rich flavor wraps your tongue in a lush blanket of sweet malt with a spicy hop finish. Two hop varieties in the Dry Hopping provide an enticing floral bouquet, with notes of resin and herbs,creating a delightfully quaffable and refreshing ale we’re sure you’ll love!

Aroma of malt, caramel, lots of pine, floral notes, tropical fruits, hops. Flavour is light sweet with a nicely long bitter finish. Really nice piney IPA.

Golden-amber, medium head. Peachy hop nose, biscuity malts, maybe some overripe fruit notes. Bitter, piney, some chewy and biscuity malts. Earthy. Clean...a decent cali IPA, though this chewy style seems dated now...things change fast!

Tap at BeerTemple, 21st December 16. Pours dark amber, fluffy head. Aroma is caramel malt, toffee. Taste is malt forward, caramel, sweet, nice, but not enough bitter hop balance for me.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Golden color, just hazy, with compact head. Nice resiny hops aroma, but mild. Dry mouthfeel, the malt has straws and some cereals character, the hop has a herbaceous touch, some hop resins in the final. Total lack of fruit, in case you are looking for it.
Ok IPA, nothing special.
