Can: Poured a clear light copper color ale with a large foamy head with OK retention and some light lacing notes. Aroma of cereal notes with some light dry hoppy notes. Taste is also a mix of clean cereal notes with light dry hoppy notes with some distant citrus notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Not hoppy enough for the style.

Can from the LCBO. Hazy orange amber with a large off white head that fades slowly and leaves some lace. Medium toffee with bread and light citrus on the nose. Medium caramel sweetness with a light soapy bitterness. Mouth is medium light creamy mouth with soft carbonation and a long lightly bitter finish. Leans more to the ESB side than a pale ale.

Can - Pale malts and light earthy hops. Clear gold with a ice white head. Light pale malts caramel, light spice and a clean finish.

Pours a clean golden-amber colour with a frothy-foamy warm cap that stays a while, leaving some creamy-bubbly lacing. Grainy cereal aromas with mild toffee in the background and hints of fruits. Soapy taste of hop with light cereal malts. A little dryness and bitterness in the mouthfeel. Surprisingly decent for something that does not seem too crazy in all departments. Goes down well and unique enough for the style.

Why is John A winking at me? (I assume he’s winking, I can only see the one eye.) Does he know something about this beer that I don’t? An interesting bit of branding, though rather blind, the brewers having the Macdonald surname, and Old Tomorrow being a nickname of John A. But whatever, is the beer worth the research? (Two minutes on Google, and some can reading.) Let’s find out. Pours a very clear amber, half a finger of loose white head. Nose of mild pine and resin hops, some bready malts. The taste isn’t as reserved as the nose. Much bigger hops flavour with bittering, pine and resin all in there with a touch of perfume. The malts take much more of a supportive role with it only adding a little hay to the mix. I like it. Good job John A. and mom and son Macdonald
