Can from the LCBO. Dark copper pour, with a medium off with head. Aroma is pungent raw, green hop cones, candied citrus, and sharp cereals. Mouth feel is full, carb is standard. Medium to high bitterness, more candied citrus rind, and an abundance of raw hop cones. Very rough around the edges and unrefined.

Hazy caramel-amber colour with golden highlights. The head is big, fluffy-creamy off-white with good retention and leaving some thick creamy streaks of lacing. Tangerine, clementine aromas over mild caramel malts, grassiness. Again, citrus flavours with some grassy hop notes. Some decent dryness in the finish with a tad spiciness. Not a bad IPA, but the hops seem a little unbalanced in this one.
