Bottle from a local Métro store pouring a hazy light golden-yellow colour, unfiltered with tiny particles, a beautiful creamy-frothy white cap that stays quite long, leaving some creamy thick lacing. Citrus and grass aromas with some light yeast. The taste is also citrusy and grassy with the piney notes. I do not get the peach and mango written here. The head gives this one some creaminess, but the brew is pretty dry. I had read NEIPA, but it is NMIPA (as in Nouveau Monde - New World IPA), so was expecting a juicy one. Nope, just some different new world hops. A beautiful looking dry IPA.

Enjoyed at brewpub. Pours a hazy golden colour with an amber hue, a beige frothy head with decent stay and very good lace. Hoppy nose with citrus notes of oranges. Same milder hoppiness with the citrus and hints of caramel. Mouthfeel is nicely dry. An easy-drinking lightly dry pale ale.

Pours a hazy light yellow colour with minimal head and lacing. Aromas of sour lemon juices with some tarty yeast. The same for the taste, but a little milder. Nice sourness coats the tongue for a while. Mouthfeel is mildly dry and tarty. Easy-drinking sour lemony beer some good lingering.

Draft: Poured a clear yellow color ale with a nice large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy notes with light tropical fruits is very pleasant. Taste is also a good mix of light tropical fruits with some citrusy hops undertones with light grainy malt notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable session IPA but grain bill could be a little bit cleaned up.

Enjoyed at Pub Chelsea and took picture there. Hazy golden with an amber hue. The head is creamy, warm-coloured with good stay and creamy lacing. Light Belgian Ale yeast aromas with malty fruitiness. The taste is pretty sweet, very rich. Caramel, fruity malts with mild hops in the finish. Yep, this is a pretty rich brew. Nice to try, but very, very sweet.

Enjoyed this one at Pub Chelsea. Pours a very slight hazed golden colour with a small off-white head, kind of creamy and decent lacing. Fruity malt aromas with mostly citrus notes. Pretty dry mouthfeel. Lots of orange flavours with full zest. Quite a nice dry citrusy IPA.

Brassin 185 - written 0358 on side of label. Hazy, slightly unfiltered, dark amber colour with a creamy-frothy beige head, very nice retention and some thick foamy lacing. Nutty aromas at first with raisins, dates and bread notes. Then, the sugars come out with hints of apples. The taste is smooth with a nice blend of caramel malts, dark fruits and some good bitterness in the finish. Goes down quite well, not being too rich. Just a touch of the Scotch peat in the background. A very drinkable Wee Heavy.
