Description
We are a brewery & distillery, located on a picturesque 100 acre farm in the small township of Ayr. When Cameron Formica and Jordan and Nolan Vanderheyden finished university, they were looking for something outside of the classic nine to five. They really wanted to do something hands-on that they could physically create. So in 2017 they founded Willibald Farm Distillery and Brewery.

Can from Beerdome. Aroma is fruity hop with citrus, tropical fruits, mango, touch of pineapple, light pale malt. Flavour is mild sweet and bitter, body is medium. The 10% is hidden very well, no sign of hop burn. My kind of TIPA.

473ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Tropical fruity and slightly grassy, hoppy aroma, wheaty malty background, rather unspecific fruitiness, some overripe tropical fruit, a touch of nectarine and orange is a bit more explicit, minimally peppery, yeasty spicy, almost funky overtones. Taste is sweet-ish, oaty and wheaty malty, tropical fruity and slightly citrusy fruity, hoppy, overripe tropical fruit again, hints of nectarine, lemon interludes, a touch of orange as well; later a tad more herbal, still citrusy, a touch of lemon drops, lemon balm.
Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, minimally dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation.
Some nice "dirty" aspects, relatively multifacetted, maybe a tad too sweet; shows some character, not your ordinary DIPA, worth to explore a bit longer and more accurate - good!
