can from the lcbo.
Hazy yellow pour, with a medium, frothy white head. Aroma is grassy, light tropical fruit, light pine. Mouth feel is solid, carb is the same. Finish is medium bitter with a pithy bitterness. light citrus, light pine. Run of the mill IPA leaning towards mediocre.

Olfactif à forte teneur de pamplemousse, de fruits tropicaux et de melon au miel. Dry hop évident et malt caramel en sourdine. Belle mousse blanche et crémeuse sur liquide doré flou mais pas trouble. Entrée de bouche présentant des aspects d’houblonnage à cru, suivi de notes de pamplemousse légèrement acidulées. Amertume présente en fin de bouche. Son coté tropical ne ressort pas assez. Correcte en général. Son coté fruité aurait intérêt à être plus développé et son houblonnage à cru plus atténué.

Pours a slightly hazy, light-yellow, almost golden colour with a big warm cap, frothy, creamy, long lasting and delivering nice creamy wavy lacing. Leafy aromas of grassiness with hints of pineapples. The mouthfeel is dry and bitterness is present in the finish. Flavours of grassy hops with a drop of fruitiness in the background. A pretty good IPA. Not sure I would use the name New England IPA on the can though, as not really juicy, and the haziness is limited. Still a good micro IPA though.
