473ml can. Pours a hazy orange-amber with a medium, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves thick patches of lace. Sweet aroma of bready caramel malt, orange peel, pine and weedy hops. Sweet flavour of cracker malt, caramel, orange peel, mango, peach and pine resin in a dry, bitter, leafy green hop finish. Medium body with a sticky, oily texture and average carbonation. Flavourful, well balanced and enjoyable.

Very nice white foam, mellow gold clear body, sweet peachy hops on the nose. Flavour is bright hops, good peach, sweetness but not overly cloying. Just nice all around, alcohol is well hidden. Good on Russell for a nice big IPA.

473mL can, pours a clear copper golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out lots of sticky resinous hops and sweet caramel malt. Flavour confirms this is on the sweeter side, with tons of sticky resinous hop oils, sweet caramel, and a hint of pine. Very sticky and oily, with a fair amount of sweetness coming through from the hop oils. There is some nice dry piney hop bite to balance also. Very nicely put together, though perhaps a tad too sticky and sweet.

Can from Legacy LRS, Vancouver
Light amber to golden colour, hazy. Bready malt, gentle caramel, mildly sweet; the hop has some candied orange and pine resins, robust bitterness. Not the most modern DIPA, but solid. Overpriced though (taking one score point for that).

Tall can at Alex's. Appearance: clear golden with a white head. Aroma: some vegetables, candied fruits. Taste: along the same lines. Overall: good old school stuff.

Amber colour, bright, with a bit of head. On the nose it's fairly chewy, piney, old school DIPA. On the palate it's the same. A good blast of alcohol in the finish, quite piney, moderate bitterness, some citrus, and a slightly chewy malt profile. Pretty good execution, really.
