Lightly hazed, golden colour with an orange highlight, a white frothy cap, decent stay and a foamy coat over the brew. Orange juice aromas with lemon-lime zest, and some grassy hops to complete. The citruses continue into the flavours with a juicy mouthfeel, very mild dryness. Hints of tropical fruits as well. A pretty decent juicy IPA.

It’s a red ale basically. But kinda stuck between styles, it’s fine enough. Malty more than hoppy. Can in sk

This stout poured a deep black colour with a huge, creamy, tan coloured head. Nice lacing. Scents include chocolate, mint, cream and a little black cherry. First swig was so smooth and oh so creamy. Flavours of cocoa, mint, coffee and black Forrest cake really. Finish is a little bitter with powdered chocolate and mint flavours lingering.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a medium white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones notes and some residual sugar notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Interesting NEIPA but lacks creamy texture and juicy hops punch.

Linalool, lime, pepper, wheat malt, and straw aroma. Slightly hazy golden yellow with moderate white head. Mildly sweet lemon-lime, linalool, wheat malt, and mildy bitter straw flavor. Okay body.

Opaque, medium head, light, a bit tart, this seems off. I am most certainly not digging this.

Can from the LCBO. Hazy pale orange with a small lingering white cap that generates lots of tight lace. Nose is melon, stone fruit and citrus zest along with some floral notes. Light+ fruity sweetness with a medium- grass and citrus bitterness. Mouth is medium with average carbonation. 7/4/7/3/14

Lighter golden colour, clean, with a big creamy-frothy white cap, good stay and lots of foamy lacing streaks. Got some lime sour juices at first pour, but disappeared quickly, leaving some Belgian yeast and coriander like a Witbier. The same for taste, and the wheat is felt lingering in the aftertaste. Some hints of lime zest. Not doing much for me, and wishing more lime juice sourness to balance things.

Lightly hazed, light golden-yellow colour with a bubbly cap, not much stay, nor lacing. Orange aromas (kind of Orange Crush-like) with some mild sourness, some sugars and herbal hints. The sour notes come out winning in the taste with the orange essences. Thankfully, not as sweet-sugary, and the finish is drying, thinner. Not a bad take on the style, but a few better beer brewed in the Mimosa-sours.

Can that pours a clean, very light golden colour with a bubbly-frothy white cap, average stay and some mild foamy lacing ring. Cereal grain straw aromas with some herbal-grassiness, and hints of citrus. Eventually, plastic notes appear in the nose, and some wet cardboard. The taste shows more of the corn as base with decent lime-herbal hoppiness. Some more bitter-plasticy touch do come out. It does seem to be better drinking directly from the can, and probably much better real cold. A decent Mexican style lager, but drink from can, really, really cold for summertime.
