Cloudy light golden, sheet of white head. Great nose of resin and tropical fruits. Taste is tropical fruit, a little weed, some light resin, over a fairly light malt. Lingering hops resin, a touch of bitterness and a little hop burn. For a IPA it's solid, for a session, it's exceptional.

Can from the LCBO in the Good Karma pack. Clear bright gold with a large rocky off white head that hangs around and leaves tight lace. Nose is citrus, pine, melon and a bit of cattiness. Light bready sweetness with a medium- pineapple and resin bitterness. Mouth is full and creamy with average carbonation and a lightly bitter finish. Alcohol is well integrated. Solid, but not as juicy as the rest of the Karma series. 8/4/7/4-/15
