Can from the LCBO. Hazy orange pour, with a HUGE off white head. Aroma is citrus forward, mostly oranges, and light lemon. Malts are sweet, and caramel forward. Mouth feel is full bodied, carb is quite soft. Finish is light to medium bitter, with a malt forward finish. Pedestrian IPA. muddled, and boring.

This IPA poured a cloudy, light amber colour with a creamy, off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include perfume, Marmite and floral hops. First swig was not even close to how hoppy I figured it was going to be. Flavours of citrus, hops and a light wiener. Finish is grassy with light wieners and minimal bitterness lingering.

Can from the LCBO. Cloudy medium amber under a generous, long lasting off white head leaving patchy lace. Prominent floral nose with some caramel malt, pineapple, and lemon peel. Flavour is lightly sweet bubblegum with a medium- grassy bitterness but not quite living up to the promise of the nose. Mouth is medium- with average carbonation and a chewy finish. 7+/4/6/3/14-
