Cask at barhop2. Hazy, Cloudy orange pour, with a large white head. Aroma is obviously hoppy. Big pine resins and juicy melon, and stone fruit aromas, and impressive nose indeed. The body and carb are standard if anything, the mouthfeel.is quite round, and slightly viscous. The finish is sweet, juicy, with a medium bitterness. More resinous hops, and some solid stone fruit and slight, crisp mango skin. Nice stuff.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver, tag Sept 06 2020, 4+ months old
Cloudy dark blond colour, compact head. The aroma is mildly lemony and dank. The mouthfeel is lean, almost dry; the malt base is delicate, the hop is lightly citrusy, peel-y, but there is also a strange floral component, not really disturbing, just unexpected; the bitterness errs on the low end of the spectrum. Somehow sour. Not very fresh, but it's modernly designed, and fairly pleasant.

Can that pours a hazy golden colour with an orange hue. The head seems warm-white, frothy, with good retention and light foamy lacing. Some particles are seen through the brew. Pineapple, tropical fruits and orange note aromas with some soft grass. The taste has some nice mild fruitiness with the oranges, and the rest of the hops kicks in a slight spiciness in the finish. The citrus fruit continues to lingers. Wet, slick mouthfeel with a growing dryness, bitterness. Seems more like a NEIPA than a West Coast one, but good nonetheless.

Can from Cask & Barrel. It's pale and hazy, with a decent head. Fairly bright hop aroma, with gooseberries, pomelo and that sort of thing. Moderate bitterness, and it's also got some decent malts. Almost a bit too sticky. But all told, I like it. It's a good IPA if you're just having one. Might be too sweet to go past that, however.

Can from the LCBO. Hazy medium gold with a large off white head that recedes slowly and leaves tight lace. Nose has tropical fruit, citrus, pine and some biscuit. Light sweet bread with a medium+ pineapple, grass and pine bitterness. Mouth is medium- and creamy with soft carbonation and a nicely bitter finish. Solid IPA. 8/4/7+/3/14+

On tap at Rainhard, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, resinous hop oils, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of piney hops, some oily resins, and crisp biscuity malt. Crisp and biting, with a great pine character. Excellent west coast style IPA.

This IPA poured a clear yellow colour with a creamy, white head. Nice lacing. Scents include pineapple,lemon citrus, white bread and sweet jam. First swig was a little thin with a blistering amount of hops. Very little of anything but citrus hops. Finish isn’t the most bitter I’ve had but too hoppy for this guy.
