Can from the LCBO. Clear copper pour, with a medium off white head. Aroma is very resinous, and semi sweet with some caramel, and sweet grains. mouth feel is full, carb is solid. medium to highly bitter, a bit boozy, lots of pine, and spruce notes, with some sweet malts to balance .Old style DIPA, a bit rough around the edges.

Pours a clean light amber colour with golden highlights (gets slightly hazy at last pour). Warm light-beige coloured frothy head, good retention leaving some mild foamy lacing. Grassy hops in the aromas with orange peel and juices. Hints of tropical fruits and vanilla. The taste seems a little off. Hoppy, but seems like a weird light sourness taking over the grassiness, lingering. Can't say it is infection, but hard to say with 10% ABV that can hide this. And not really smelling it. Maybe it is the pineapple juice, but would be more sweet than sour. Maybe the puree started fermenting. Not one I would go back to because of this.
