Draft pour at malt and vine. Pours a golden color with a big foam head. Really nice hop fronted aroma to this. Really criso, refreshing flavor with hops and a touch of spice. Finishes a little on the dry side. Overall a good lager. Enjoyed this.

This is my third one and this one was currently poured into a pint glass.
Bottom of the can said \"12/09/14.
The appearance was a nice looking hazy orange color. A fair amount of floaties roamed about with a thin sixteenth finger’s worth of white semi-foamy head that dissipated within a decent twenty seconds. Light spider web to off sort of all over lacing speckled the glass all around.
The smell had a fairly decent malted grapefruit-esque to slight piney to floral part coming about.
The taste was fairly bittersweet with a fairly leading grapefruity to piney edge and leading to a smoothed out sort of decent citrus aftertaste. A fairly nice palatable semi-dry finish accompanies the aftertaste.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent carbonation to it. 7.5%, hmmmm....canning date, makes me think, hmmmm....yeah, well, uh...(wishing for something just a tad fresher).
Overall, I say this was a pretty good AIPA, however, I wish I had this a tad bit fresher, ah, oh well.

On tap at Fort George, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is a little weird, with earthy notes, a little licorice and musty notes. Flavour tastes very musty and earthy, with medium roast and a little licorice. Something seems really off here. It's not a disaster, but tastes like they didn't quite get this right.

On tap at Fort George, pours a cloudy dark red with a small beige head. Aroma brings out bready caramel malts and a little toffee. Flavour reveals notes of sweet caramel and sugar. Not really complex in any way. Not my thing.

On tap at Fort George, pours a hazy golden with a small beige head. Aroma brings out loads of Belgian yeast, floral fruity esters, and light sweetness. Flavour is not authentic at all, with fruity esters, yeast and floral notes. Not enough carbonation, too much body, and not floral or spicy enough. Still, it's okay.
