Pint can from Bella's Sault St. Marie, 7/4/21. Hazy orange, large foamy white head, good retention. Aroma of ginger and lemon. Taste is ginger, orange, lemon, pale malt. Pretty serious spiciness from the ginger. Tasty.

Deep chestnut-brown body, translucent around the edges; thin tan head. Nose dry, with cocoa powder, toasted nuts, and boozy warmth. Body rather dry with a huge macadamia presence, backed by substantial cocoa, coffee, roast, and toasted sugars. Pleasantly warming.

Imagine owing a brewery and are knowingly shipping out an IPA that's fifteen months old?! Canned August, 9th, 2019. Malty and oxidized. Utter disgrace.

16oz can from Halftime. Almost 8 months old. Orange golden body, fizzy head. Oranges and tangerines, caramel in the aroma. Initial burst of citrus peel followed by sweet caramel malts. Still drinkable, but i bet this was a lot better fresh.
