Opaque and pale. Thin head. There’s a bit of weedy hop, hints of cantaloupe and grapefruit. A bit of hop burn up front, moderate bitterness, decent pale malt. Not bad hazy.

473mL can. Pours deep dark brown with a small beige head. Roasted malts, coffee, and seaweed on the nose. Flavour also has roasted malts and seaweed that are well-integrated. Full-bodied and good depth of flavour. Very nice, the seaweed has been well-incorporated into the beer.

Poured from 473mL can. Clear brown-ish orange with small light beige head. Feint smokey malt, fairly bland and muted overall, meh.

5oz pour at Steamworks Mount Pleasant. Pours hazy blonde with white head. Smells like a urinal cleaner. Flavour is way too sweet, lots of juicy stonefruit with nothing to counterbalance. Minimal carbonation. Did they use hops to make this beer? This is terrible - not an IPA and barely a beer.

473mL can. Pours clear gold with off-white head. Aroma has malt base with notes of spruce and orange. Flavour has strong off-dry caramel malt backbone with a good dose of woody spruce. The sweetness from the malt and the slight astringency from the spruce are well-balanced. Solid beer.

Beautiful crystal clear amber and deep bronze coloured body with a very thick, three to four centimetre tall off-white and tan head that caps the clear amber body with zillions of small bubbles always rising from the bottom. Aroma of light malt, grain, caramelised sugars, earth, toffee and a kick of some deeper hop notes that show more of a Warrior, Simcoe or Tomahawk presence. Medium-bodied; Pretty rich graininess from the malts show at first with a dry and grassy kick as well and some pretty pungent bitterness, but seemingly from the malt instead of the hops. Aftertaste has some slight sweetness from toffee and caramelised sugars, but the majority of the flavours are the dry, grassy, earthy and especially nuttiness of the grainy malts with some noticeable alcohol warmth here, but no real hoppiness. Overall, this is an older school American [I know, it's 'Canadian'] Strong Ale and doesn't show much hops at all, but it's decent and at least has some bitterness. Nice to try once, but I wish I bought a different beer back home with me instead of this one! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from DenMan Beer Wine & Spirits in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada on 30-June-2022 (my birthday!) for CA$4,83 sampled at my house here in Washington on the other end of Canada and America on 21-August-2022.
