Can from the lcbo. Clear orange pour, with a large white head. Light pine resin, bready cereals, medium bitterness. Clean, and crisp. Run of the mill pale ale. Decent.

Grapefruit and a bit of trash can kind of aroma. Golden pour with good head. Light bitter finish. Tap at Craft.

Poured from the tap. Clear gold with small white head. Chewy biscuit malt, light pine hops. Forgettable.

Weak clear gold body and little foam. Soft pine aroma, mellow caramel, nice. Flavour is good piney hop character bolstered by soft caramel. Okay oily finish, good carbonation, an okay IPA.

Quite hopped up and fairly bitter for the style. Relatively cleanly made. But just a bit harsh on the bitterness. Sobeys sk

473mL can, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma reveals some piney hops, a herbaceous character, and biscuity malt. Flavour is quite herbaceous in the hop department, with some grass, and crisp biscuity malt. Too herbaceous—almost vegetal—for me. Pretty mediocre.

First new office tick in a while. Amber. Quite chewy, old school piney c hop, lot of bitterness, fair bit of crystal malt sweetness in the finish.

Can that pours a golden colour with heavy carbonation, a big enough off-white frothy-creamy head, good retention and some wavy foamy-creamy lacing. Citrus grapefruit peel aromas with caramel malt base. The mouthfeel has a decent dry finish. Citrus flavours that are mild and hints of malts, with a grainy cereal feel. Not bad, but nothing super special.

Draught at the brewery
Blond colour. Quite crisp, with delicate bready malt base, mild hop aromatics, and robust bitterness. Nothing vibrant here, but it's clean and pleasant.
