Bomber from the lcbo. Pours a nice gold color, with a big white head. Huge pine resin aroma, must be heavy on centennial. Big Green hop cone aroma, with some solid citrus and tropical fruit. Good mouth feel, carb is spot on. The finish is medium butte with a good citrus zest finish. Excellent stuff.

Clear Copper pour, with a medium off white head. Aroma is bready, some nice caramel, and a subtle herbiness. Nice mouthfeel, solid, and the carb is perfect. The finish is semi sweet, minimal bitterness with some soft grassy hops in the end with a nice nutty maltiness.

Bottle from the lcbo. Hazy orange pour, large off white head. Aroma is peppery, lots of malted wheat, honey and floral hops. Mouth feel is soft, carb is the same. Low bitterness, more peppery flavours, malts get sweet hops fade. Nothing special.

On tap at The Magnet, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out spicy Saaz hops, light grassiness, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is crisp and biting, with forceful Saaz hops creating a nice spiciness, backed with a crisp biscuity base. Crisp, punchy and clean. Very good.

0.473l can, courtesy of CanCrusher. Aroma of caramel, dried fruit and flowers. Pours clear brown amber color with large soapy off-white head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts moderate sweet toasted malt and caramel, following is herbal, medicinal and dried fruity, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is dry and bitter. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Naughty by nature…
