a: pretty hazy golden coloured body | thinnish white head
a: funky yeasts | stone fruits | drying finish
f: sour oranges | rich wheats | lactobilly funk
t: cleanser | herbal | vanilla at end
o: surprisingly enjoyable | balanced with a bit of everything | not terribly hoppy, but closer to a real IPA than most others in the style, refreshingly nice to bring back home from Canada

(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours very hazy medium orange with a thick white head and lots of lace. Notes of big sweet-tart apricot and orange juice with fairly heavy vanilla amping up the fruit sweetness in the nose and early in the sip, lactose is punchy, definitely no hiding the smoothie here, supplementary notes of mango and cannabis, sweetness giving way slightly to acidity later in the sip with long fresh apricot milkshake finish and supplementary dry-hop leafy accents. Medium-full creamy body with pillowy carbonation, good mouthfeel. Excellent tart milkshake IPA vibes here, this was a random can purchase but I was very glad to try it.
