Australian Cascade and Galaxy hops animate the waters of Canada Bay with light, spirited citrus and stonefruit flavours. With its restrained malt profile and satisfyingly bitter finish, Canada Bay may well become your new place of worship.

Some mild citrus and malts notes in the aroma and a little bit of bitterness in the mouth. A reminder of why I generally steer clear of XPAs.

375ml can at Gavel, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a mostly clear golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, light citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a light, crisp, slightly watery, citrus, mineral, light floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Where were the bittering hops?
