Can from the lcbo. Dark copper pour with a small white head. Aroma is resinous, light pine, light cereals, dark than expected for the style. Mouth feel is fuller than expected for the style, carb is lively. Finish is lightly bitter, cereals and light piney hops. Not unpleasant but boring.

Can from the lcbo. Cloudy beige pour, with a medium white head. Aroma is malted wheat, coriander, lemon, slightly roasted grain and sweet wheat. Mouth feel. Is soft, carb is the same. Finish is semi sweet, lots of coriander notes, and lots of wheat. Basically a sweeter version of a Belgian wit.

Can from the lcbo. Hazy orange pour, with a huge off white head. Aroma is fruity, caramel malts, yeasty, with some pine notes. Medium to high bitterness, yeasty, piney finish with some odd Belgian notes. Odd beer.

Slightly hazy copper pour, with a big white head. Solid cereals, light caramels and some grass. Nice mouth feel, soft carb light minerals. Finish is low to medium bitter, nicely balanced between the grains and hops. Decent.

Can from the lcbo. Dark brown pour, with a large beige head. Sweet malts, roasty coffee notes and strong pine resin hops. Mouth feel is soft, same with the carb. Nice resinous finish with alot of coffee notes. Reminds me alot of a very hopped American porter.

Dark copper pour, medium white head. Aroma is very malty, lots of bitter cereals, wet paper, and musty grass, with some fruity undertones. Medium bitterness, more wet paper finish. Not very good at all.

Citrus aromas with some orange notes and mild grassiness. Very lightly hazed at the beginning, bright golden-yellow colour with a big fluffy white cap, good retention and some thick creamy-foamy lacing. The taste is the same as the nose with some stronger, bitter, dryness in the end. Gets a touch hazier as we pour, but nothing close to a standard East Coast Hazy IPA. Maybe they missed out on the quantity of oats? Still, a good IPA with the citrus, some West Coast grassy hops, but all well-blended together to make this a mildly-hazy, somewhat juicy, dry IPA.

This lager poured a hazy, dark orange colour with a creamy, way off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include ripe fruit, chocolate, tangerine grapefruit, spices and a little must. Really complex. First swig was really creamy with flavours of dark chocolate, clementines, malt, must and Terry’s Chocolate Orange. Finish is lightly sweet, with orange, light chocolate flavours lingering.
