Tap the craft brasserie and grill. Slightly hazy orange pour, with a small white head. Upfront like a slap in the face i get a strong boot of diacetly. That hop killing butter caramel assailant. This ruined me on this beer, i couldnt get away from it. The rest was buttery, and slightly bitter, needs work,

Lime and some malt, but not very well put together or integrated. Pours golden with ok head and lacing. Tangy finish. Not a great thing. Can from lick boh.

Pours a clean golden-amber colour with a warm cap, good stay and some dirty lace all around. Green leaf aromas from the hops over fruity tropical fruit notes. The taste has the grassy hops over light caramel malts. Hints of peaches. Not bad, but seems a little unbalanced in the flavours.

My cousin sent me this Harbinger APA via her friends who visited Kyoto. It's by Descendants Beer & Beverage Co. From Kitchener, Ontario. A beautiful copper pour with a thick light beige head of foam and a wonderful hop bouquet of pear, ripe oranges and mild pine. Med-light bodied with a raspy carbonation the taste is sweet at first, the earthy woodsy pine while the finish gives sweet citrus notes. A solid straight up APA, I'm glad I drank this fresh. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Draft - Bready notes and earthy hops. Clear gold with a rich white head. Sweet, tea leaf astringency and a dry finish. More like an English Pale Ale.

Can from the LCBO. Cloudy pale amber with a generous off-white head that lingers and leaves some lace. Nose is light toffee under a moderate pine resin and some light floral notes. Light sweet toffee supporting a medium light bitterness. Mouth is thin and watery with soft carbonation. Just OK.
