Clear amber pour, medium beige head. Aroma is peach, apricot, citrus zest and some nice cereals.. Good carb and mouth feel. Finish is fruity, and zesty, nice drinking, hoppy finish. A nice over all pale ale.

Gawd bless Gibson’s. In fact I haven’t been there for some years and perhaps am surmprised that a brewery exists there but nonetheless it’s a prime spot ’long the Canadian pacific coast. This’un’s got fine antique white head and golden body, little carbonation. The aroma is all hops, not too strong, but not complex. Flavour is plenty of hops again and a dry finish. You know a friend of mine asked me why there was such this obsession with hops in the 21st century - after all, there was no real need for them, as hops helped preserve beer on long ocean voyages and we had many decades ago managed to figure out water purification; nonetheless it’s become more of a taste thang, these excessive hops, tho this isn’t too excessive as it seems. Nonetheless it’s fascinating that what we once drank out of necessity, we now drink out of luxury. Excuse me while I finish this and pour a Gin & Tonic....

Bottle: Poured an amber color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops with light piney notes is quite nice. Taste is a mix of citrusy hops with some piney notes floral undertones and subtle light caramel notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Solid interpretation of the style.

Bottle - Leafy pine hops. Clear gold with a nice big beige head. Little pine and resin, light malts and well balanced bitterness. Nice to see something true to style, well done and skip the extra’s.

650 ml bottle. Pours a clear copper with light head. Aromas of pink grapefruit, pine and onions. Flavors of pine, grass, light toasted malts, and limes. Nice, and easy to quaff.
