Can from the brewery. Slightly hazy orange pour, with a large white head. Fruity nose, citrus zest, great malty backbone. Great mouth feel, carb is perfect. Finish is low to medium bitterness, pithy bitterness, light pine, and more citrus zest. Decent, better than expected.

Pours a lightly hazy golden colour with a warm off-white frothy cap, good stay and some tiny spots of foam lacing. Orange citrus aromas with honey notes. Some solid bitterness in the taste with a dry finish. Nice flavours of citrus and grassiness. Gets hazier at the end. A pretty good West Coast style, bitter IPA with some mild juiciness.

Can from the Brewery, drank on the dock at the cottage. Dark gold pour with white head, nose of resin and some citrus and honey. Tastes of resinous hops, over a mildly sweet malt base, bitter finish. Overalls not mind blowing, but not bad. The lcbo offerings of this brewery are weak, but there are some excellent choices to be tried from the brewery. (plus they are my cottage local.)

This IPA poured a clear light yellow colour with a big, bright white, creamy head. Nice lacing. Scents include fresh, wet hops, grass and a little dough. First swig was really nice. Not way over hopped as expected by the bouquet. Flavours of lemon, grass and sweet flowers. Finish is lightly lemony with a lot of grass thrown in. Palate is quite hoppy but not over the top.
