Also the best beer I had at the Rhino summer fest. Remarkable beer for style. Pours reddish brown with ok head and lacing. Lots of citrus and mint in aroma. Awesome tangy finish with some bitterness. Soft carbonation. Well done. On tap.

Haha, be my guest Sammy. Great introduction to a new hops style. Tastes a little citrusy with some malt and staying power on the bitterness. Pours dark amber. Average consistency. Enjoyed this more than the mosaic, to be sure - amazing the difference between hops varieties. Tap at Rhino Winterfest.

A little sour for my tastes. Hops profile doesn’t exactly do well for style - or maybe I’m just unfamiliar with mosaic hops. Pours amber with decent head, lacing. Average carbonation, consistency. Dark amber colour. Finishes sour with slight dose of bitterness at very end. Definitely preferred the Belma version of this brew. On tap at Rhino Winterfest.

Draught at C’est What, Toronto
Hazy color, deep blond, with small head. A simple Ale with a delicate and pleasant flavor of cookies and winter spices (cinnamon and ginger). Correct bitterness.
