Can from the lcbo. Pours a cross between golden, and orange, with a big white head. The aroma is confusing, it smells like hops, light citrus, light pine.... What the hell. This is a lake of bays beers, they don’t use hops! Did they mistake a bag of hops for a bag of gjnger or chai tea, or some other bullshit Ingredient? This actually has hop presence... Medium bitterness, actually citrus and pine flavours and aromas I’m floored! Welcome to 2009!

This APA poured a nice, deep amber colour with a creamy white head. Nice lacing. Scents include grass, cream and bread. First swig was creamy and smooth. Flavours of tea, light toast and resin. Finish is mildly hoppy with light toast and grassy flavours lingering.

A slightly hazed golden colour with a big frothy-foamy warm cap, good retention and nice creamy-foamy lacing. Pine and cedar wood aromas from the hops. The taste has more of the citrus peel. Crisp mouthfeel with a big dryness in the finish. Nice bitterness lingers. Oranges and grapefruits. Quite a nice APA.

Can from the LCBO. Slightly hazy pale gold under a two finger white head that fades gradually to a sheet and leaves some sparse lace. Nose is light pine and citrus with a light honey and some floral notes along with a touch of spice. Flavour is light sweet with a moderate- floral pine bitterness. Mouth is medium slick with average carbonation and a short bitter finish. Decent enough APA but not outstanding. 7/3+/7/3/14
