650ml bottle from the brewery,
Dark gold pour, small white head. Pungent grassy hop aroma mixed with some light nuttiness, and quite a bit of caramel malts. This is like a mix of a session ipa, english pale ale and a mild. Very drinakble and quite pleasant, but i would like a little more hops, and less caramel malts.

Bottle: Poured a light yellow color ale with a medium size white head with OK retention and slight lacing. Aroma of light grainy notes with powerful bitter hops is OK. Taste is dominated by bitter hops notes with light unrefined grainy notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. I would have preferred less bitterness and more floral notes which would have improved the drinkability of this beer.

On tap at the Ottawa beerfest. A nice copper pour with a thick beige head. A bit buttery in the nose with soft hop notes. The taste is hoppy popcorn, it is pretty bizarre but not unpleasant. The beer I want to drink while watching a movie.

A golden amber IPA with a thick frothy lacing off white head. In aroma, caramel malt with light grassy floral hops, light butterscotch. In mouth, a nice caramel malt with floral and piney hops, herbaceous, a bit astringent. Bomber from brewery.
