Hazy amber, fruity hop, not as fresh as I might like. Too chewy by far, just a blast of crystal malt, and this buries all hop bitterness and brightness. Call it Imperial Red or BW so I know what to expect - this is IPA only in the 1820s October Beer context, and even then it needs some aged notes.

Very modest head, okay amber-brown body with a few bubbles in it. Good sweet hop profile, a stronger IPA meant for beer geeks, shall we say, than the unwashed masses at large. Flavour is strong and sweet hops with a malty finish. Very drinkable, well crafted, a good effort.

Bottle - Grapefruit, orange, spice and some nice malts to balance. Clear dark amber and an off white head. Very dark for an IPA. Orange pith, grapefruit and lots of malt (toffee) which balances the bitterness nicely. Although this beer doesn’t have the typical West Coast IPA unbalance that i like, the balance makes this very sessionable with a clean finish. Simple but well done.

650 ml bottle. Pours a dark amber with little head. Aromas of toffee and malts. Flavors of light pine, citrus, caramel, and tasted malts. Quite nice though a little flat.

Bottle from Central City Liquor Store, Surrey
Cloudy amber color, darker shade, with medium sized head. Aroma of caramelized malts. Lean mouthfeel, a bit less bodied than expected, with a quite good flavor od caramel, caramelized malts, a bit of toastiness, light biscuits; quite strong bitterness.

22 oz. bottle, split many ways, pours a cloudy orangey amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of skunky citrusy hops, vegetal notes (uh oh), and some toffee - really skunky and vegetal-like. Flavour is dominated by the vegetal notes, skunky hops and some toffee-like backing. Not the most refined or invigorating flavour profile. Decent local IPA.

Hazy amber, beige head.Nose is light honey,slightly piney. Piney fore, vague sweet mid, mild but lasting hop finish, rye notes. More of a Pale than an IPA
