Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7

Bottle from the LCBO.
Pours a dark purple, with reddish hues, and a pinkish/red head. Aroma has some nice blue berry notes with some soft citrus, and subtly sweet fruit. Mouth feel, and carb are standard for the style. Finish is fruity, low bitterness, distinct blue berry, very subtle, but its there, with a nice fruity hop bill. Refreshing, and solid.

Bottle: Poured a cloudy/hazy blue-ish color ale with a medium size off-white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of strong blueberry notes with some citrusy hops notes. Taste is a dominated by strong blueberry notes with some citrusy hops notes and light residual sugar notes. Body is full with limited filtration. Not sure this mix should work but I did enjoy it.

Draught at St. Augustine's, Vancouver
Purple Murky colour with pink is head. Clearly some berry here, but the berry character is not very well defined, nor is the underlying IPA; tannins fromnthe fruit clash with the vegetable character from the hops. And definitively there is some diacetyl here.
Very unpleasant.

Draught @ St. Augs. Cloudy purple, and of course with no head. Looks interesting, anyway. Lots of blueberry, lots of bitterness. Quite clashy. Some diacetyl. This is actually a total debacle.

Bottle from the LCBO. Cloudy purple with a generous pink head that fades slowly and leaves some lace. Nose is predominantly blueberry with some pine, tropical fruit and tangerine. Flavour is mostly blueberry tang with some apricot and citrus bitterness, Mouth is medium- and sticky with soft carbonation. Much less sweet than I expected (fortunately) but not something I would revisit. 8/4/6+/3/14

A dark purple ipa with a thick frothy lacing light purple blue. In aroma, sweet fruity caramel malt with light grassy hops, light blueberry jam, light butterscotch, OK. In mouth, sweet caramel malt with light berries, grassy hops, light mineral notes, light butterscotch, OK. On tap at brewery.

Bottle from the LCBO to finish FeBrewary 2018. Pours a hazed, red-purple colour with a light pinkish head, good stay with alright lacing. The nose is a nice mix of the grassy hops, kind of spicy with the mild berry juices. The taste is pretty IPA with its bitterness and nice dry finish. The blueberries are very light in the background, because the hops are overpowering the flavours. If you do not like fruits in your beer, you might like this. I like fruits in there, so wish the berries were more dominant.
