12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear copper color with a medium white head. A light nose of sweet fruity hops. A very nice mellow flavor of tropical fruit, caramel, dry at times, light pine and bitterness. Very good.

Found this one in the singles, at the LCBO (but usually comes in a 6-pack). Pours a clean golden-amber with a big frothy and creamy off-white head. Very long lasting and loads of soapy lacing. Nice fresh cascade hop nose at first pour. The last pour delivers a bit of the fruit juice and the beer becomes very slightly hazy. Weird that it is written "Unfiltered beer. Pour gently to leave sediment at the bottom". I really don’t see much, and without the bottom, I would of never had the pineapple scent. Even the taste does not give out much of the fruit. Good hop bitterness, mild dryness, with notes of citrus zest. If I had not read the description, I would of never know that pineapple juice was used in here. It is a nice West Coast Pale Ale though.

Bottle: Poured a bright amber color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of floral and citrus hops with light pineapple notes. Taste is also dominated by loads of citrus and hoppy notes with medium bitter aftertaste. Pineapple juice notes is quite subtle but bring a nice touch. Body is quite full with great carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Well brewed and interesting approach to say the least.

Bouteille 355ml. De couleur dorée-cuivrée et voilée. Nez de houblon herbeux et légèrement résineux, moyen de fruits (agrumes, léger de fruits tropicaux) et léger de caramel sucré. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture légèrement crémeuse et aux petites notes résineuses. Goût fruité (agrumes, moyen de fruits tropicaux, surtout d’ananas) accompagné d’une légère amertume de houblon herbeux aux faibles notes florales (une amertume présente en arrière-goût toute la gorgée) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût malté de caramel sucré avec des traces de pain frais et de biscuits puis à mesure que la finale approche, l’amertume de houblon se fait plus tranchante, moyennement résineuse et légèrement asséchante. Post-goût long et un peu sec, moyennement amer de houblon résineux et herbeux avec un goût fruité (zeste d’agrumes).

Draught at C’est What, Toronto
Amber color, clean, with creamy head. Mild aroma, some hop. Smooth mouthfeel, quite good malt and toffee flavor, with nice citrusy hopping, and long final.
Not impressive, but pleasant.
