Big fruity, citrusy nose, with spotlight on mango. Mouth feel. Is good, and the carb is a tad soft. The finish is very low on bitterness with a great citrusy finish.

Tap at barhop.
A nice tart aroma, citrucy hops, with some fresh cut grass. Slightly peppery malts, some herbs, with anice tart, green, i even think guava finish. There is a big greeness about this beer. Great stuff. Super sessionable.

Bomber from the lcbo. Slightly hazy yellow/orange pour, with a small white head. Aroma is quite earthy, and woody with a solid twang. Tart apples, sharp apricot, and some light citrus. Effervescent carb, lively mouth feel. Finish is slightly funky, earthy, hints of floral herbs, cider barrel and tart, funky fruity esters. Complex, easy drinking, nice stuff.

650ml bottle from the lcbo. Slightly hazy orange pour, with a big rocky white head. huge floral hop aroma, loads of tropical fruit, mangoes especially and some honeysuckle. Soft citrus and some light pine resin. Perfect mouthfeel and carb, and the finish is lightly bitter, not as bitter as expected. Super drinkable, and very floral. A great ipa.

Lovely citrus nose, with a UK biscuity malt bill. perfect carb and mouth feel. Not exactly to style, another beer that is best in its style cause they added a huge dose of West coast hops. It’s a great beer but I don’t think should be top in its style.

on tap at The Burger Bar. Jet black pour, with a big rocky beige head. Amazing roasted malt aroma, touches of vanilla, wood, and some coffee. Decent mouthfeel, and a solid carbonation. the flavor was super satisfying. Roasty, burnt coffee, and some great vanilla finish. what a great porter, please bottle this!

On tap at Hardrock 42 in Sudbury. Black pour, big mocha head. Great roasted malt aromas, touches of cocoa, and coffee, with some very slight, but present resinous hops. The mouth feel is perfect along with the carb. The finish is green, with a great subtle, yet solid dose of piney, resinous hops. These hops balance incredibly well with the solid roasted malt flavors. At 3.7% this is a great session porter, excellent!

Cask Days 2012. hazy golden pour, small offf white head. The aroma is big on the masala, and curry. big notes of corriander, and pepper, with loads of heavy spice. cumin, and cloves are also very upfront. solid mouthfeel, good carb for a cask ale. the finish is very spicy, and even a touch hot. a little too over the top for me though. Pumpkin? Where?

750ml bottle. Lightly hazy golden pour, small white head. Nice malted wheat aroma with lemon grass, touches of citrus, subtle spice, corriander, and fresh cut grass. Perfect carb, great mouth feel. Finish is light on the bitterness, touches of funk, nice spicy, lemon and corriander. Good spiciness, and a touch peppery, quite nice.
