Clear copper pour, medium white head. Pine resin, spruce, light lemon. Good mouth feel, solid carb. Medium bitter soft bready cereals, spruce, lemon zest finish. Nice.

I do love these cans, totally old school bare aluminium and a batch sticker on the side, if this ain't craft brew well then nothing is. But this doesn't have a very attractive look to it, good enough for sure, kind of like that chick I saw at the baggage carousel last night - wiry and sexy you knew she was trouble but you also knew a roll in the hay with her would probably be some good fun. The soft graham cracker is noticeable here, some hops too, oil coming off the modest carbonation, not a bad aroma tho not great; on the right nostril it could even be considered floral, imagine that. The flavour is soft barley boosted by a bit of hoppy sharpness and a reasonably crisp finish. I tell you what, it's adequate enough, but aside from being "craft" I'd be hard pressed to remember it in a longer span of time, and while not badly made it's not amazingly made either. That said, if I had a cabin beside their brewery I'd likely be banging on their doors asking for all their kegs delivered directly to my patio. So there's that.

Can from NB Liquor. Cloudy medium orange amber with a one finger off white head that hangs around and leaves a ton of lace. Nose of citrus and resin over a light toffee malt background. Enough malt sweetness to support a big citrus bitterness. Mouth is medium slick with average carbonation and a long bitter finish. Decent. 8/4/7+/4-/15
