Can from the LCBO. Pours a clear brown, with a medium white head. Aroma is roasty, nutty, light coffee, but very faint. Some brown sugar, and sweet yeasty bread round it out. Low bitterness, soft sweetness, coffee is very light, its there, but gets overwhelmed very easy by the sweetness of the cereals, and roasty, nuttiness.

Part of a mixed summer 4 pack. Hazy yellow pour, with a large white head. Aroma is bright citrus zest, light cereals, hints of brett, and stone fruit. Mouthfeel is a bit thin, carb is lively. Finish is tart, not sour, lemon drop, and candied citrus zest, low bitterness, a bit watery.

Can from a 4 pack mixer at the LCBO. Pours a cloudy, murky orange, with a medium white head. Aroma is big on tropical fruit, juicy mango, and lots of pineapple. Hints of citrus, light zest, soft cereals. Mouth feel is full, carb is soft and creamy. Finish is very fruity, light pithiness, medium bitterness, soft heat kick in the end. Well done.

Bottle in the winter 4 pack mixer. Hazy orange pour, with a large white head. Aroma is surprisingly great. Loads of pine resins and thick, sticky citrus oils. Mouth feel is great, carb is perfect. Finish is medium bitter, loads of pine resins, green hop cones and a catty flavour reminiscent of dfh 60 minute IPA in its hay day. Nice stuff.

473ml can. Hazy yellow pour, with a large white head. Loads of ginger, earthy, and up front, and its just pounding anything else in here itno oblivion. You would never know there was peach anywhere in here, if the label didnt claim so. I dont understand why brewers use ginger, its such a powerful ingredient, its over powers absolutely everything else. Finish is lightly tart, with just another wave of ginger madness. Tart ginger beer. that's it.

Bottle from the winter 4 pack at the lcbo. Clear dull orange pour, with a medium off white head. Aroma is pine resin, wet paper and some coffee. Mouth feel is nice, carb is solod. Finish is medium bitter, coffee notes are there but the base resinous IPA masks it quite a bit. Decent though....

Bottle from 4 pack summer sampler. Hazy yellow, big white head. Aroma of lime zest, malted wheat and some coriander. Nice mouth feel, soft carb. Finish has a light twang from the lime zest, lemon mingles well with the coriander notes. Crisp and clean, well done.

Can from the LCBO. Pours a hazy, dark orange with a large off white head. Aroma is very citrus zest forward, with some nice stone fruit notes. I cant say i'm picking out apricot specifically, but its pleasant. Mouth feel is solid, carb is a bit on the softer side. Finish is a bit muddled, not as bright as i expect for the style. Medium bitter. Lacks some of the juiciness i expected out of the nose, but its a pleasant offering.
