Can. Just a very light haze on this burnished gold beer, small cream colour head. Light palate, smooth start, decent fine minerally carbonation on the back end. Light malts, as you would expect, a modest sweetness. Some mild natural grain. Cooling pine hops. C hop citrus peel, touch of marmalade. Light finish brings a mild bitterness. Standard West Coast but clean and drinkable

355ml can. Clear amber gold with a frothy off-white head. Aroma of orange, marmalade, grapefruit, resinous. Taste is proper old school westie style, marmalade, orange, grapefruit, very resinous, piney, caramel, malts, dank and slightly floral hops, and finishing with a very strong lingering hop bitterness. Medium bodied.

Can from Hero IPA Mixed Pack from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clear orange gold with a full two fingers of off-white foam that lingers. Pine, tangerine, orange and grapefruit on the nose with a touch of alcohol as it warms. Palate is similar with citrus, tangerine, pine and caramel flavors. Bitter finish with some sweet malt notes and citrus. Enjoyable.

0.355l can. Clear golden body with a white head. Classic American IPA notes of grapefruit, orange zest and pine. It also shows some sugar syrup and a hint of booze. Nice one.

$2 can from chalet. Pour is crystal clear orange tinted pale. Nose is mild sweet hop perfume. First big swig is really heavy bitter booze. Barely any co2 and its a mouth coating mixture of diesel, pine tar sap and old real rubber inner tube. Think about an out of control rototiller plowing across yer tongue. A big, terribly on style, imperial IPA mess. Way too much for my girlie macro lager loven taste buds. Triple imperial IPA ish mish raw blah. Somebody please get me an ice cold light macro lager for a chaser. Near the end I'm not sure if the acrid taste or the alky content is making me get dizzy, whew. Maybe its both. There you have it.

Optisch trübes goldbraun, in der Nase hopfig, im Trunk ebenso, Zitrus, dezent alkoholisch, etwas butterig, okay.

Clear golden pour with a medium thick bone white head that diminishes gradually to a film. Partial rings of lacing. Piney hops, citrus and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of piney hops, citrus and roast malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hop aftertaste. Above average overall.
