On tap at volo. Hazy orange pour with a slightly beige head. Aroma of juicy c hops, and some pale malts. Good mouth feel, and good carb. Medium bitterness, a wonderful summer ipa. Great citrus notes, and solid yet subtle malts.

Draft - Hoppy grapefruit. Muddy yellow orange with a thin head. Big pine and grapefruit hop bomb. Not much else but a great refreshing IPA.

Pours wonderfully. Cloudy amber with great head and complex lacing. Smells a little fruity, a little floal and a little hoppy. Average aroma profile. Palate is OK. A little bitterness in the aftertaste. Some malt as well. On cask at volos.

(Draught sample at Bryden’s, Toronto, Sept 21 2012) Poured a clear golden amber with a thin, vanishing white head. Aroma fairly sweet, marmalade orange and caramel malt with some tropical fruit behind and faint pine. Flavour a bit less fruit-forward, some pit fruit and a bunch of sweet malt with fairly pine and earth bitterness to finish, doesn’t leave much aftertaste. Medium body, medium carbonation. Smells nice but a little too sugary for me, and doesn’t quite follow it up on the palate either. A good IPA, but not a fave.

A hazed golden amber IPA with a thin off white head. In aroma, a nice smooth fruity malt with British floral hops, orange pulp, some catty notes. In mouth, a nice smooth caramel malt with citrus pulp, pungent c-hops, oily mouthfeel, smooth and classic. Cask at Ontario Cask IPA Challenge, April 21, 2012.
