To some, Janky is an expression for extremely poor or unreliable quality but its also an aromatic, well balanced, medium bodied IPA with floral and citrus notes. Brewed in small batches which means fresh beer for you.

Can from the lcbo. Hazy yellow, large white head. Big floral citrus zest, actually a touch dank, light stone fruit. Zest, vibrant mouth feel, soft carb. Low to medium bitterness, nice quaff.

Pint at Red House. Pours hazy yellow. Aroma is a dirty citrus with some grass. Flavour has orange, grapefruit, dried grass, reasonable bitterness. Mouthfeel is pretty chalky. Decent.

Lightly hazed, golden colour with a huge warm-white head, kind of creamy with very good retention and leaving some fluffy-thick lacing. Some particles eventually make it in the glass. Lemon and orange zest, soft aromas. The mouthfeel is mildly dry, but overall fairly juicy. Citrus peel taste, so a straight up citrusy, hazy, refreshing IPA.

Can from the brewery. Hazy medium amber with a large rocky cream coloured cap that fades slowly ad leaves spotty lace. Nose is bright citrus with some flowery notes, tropical fruit, resin and some light bread. Light sweet malts support a medium bitterness of pineapple, orange peel and grass. Mouth is medium with average carbonation and a juicy finish. Solid 8/4/7+/4/15-

On tap at Bar Lupulus, pours a cloudy dull golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is more up my alley than the Danky, with resinous and piney hops, enough sweet malt to back, and gentle fruitiness. Flavour follows through, bringing out a great hop character — lots of resins, some pine, lots of stone and tropical fruits, and just enough sweetness from the malt. Great expression. This is excellent.

A hazed blonde ipa with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with light resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light tropical fruits, pleasant. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity malt with resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light tropical fruits, very nice. On tap at brewery.
