6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 5.5 Flavor 6.5 Texture 6 Overall 6

Needed a beer after a long car ride with the family to Niagara. Luckily the LCBO accommodates. Pours a pinkish color with a foamy head that take a while to dwindle. Smell is kind of slight, but definitely some sour razz and a little bit of lactose. Tartness is right up front on the tongue. Then a Sour Patch Kid blue raspberry tart. Milky lactose comes along, too. Sourness stays all the way through.

Slightly milky haze when poured, with what looks like a big puffy head, but it fizzes away. Nice New England IPA style hop in the nose. Taste is nice as NA's go. No saccharine or metallic tang to it. Just a hoppy burn on the tongue, and a mild malt backing. Lactose does hold the taste together.

7.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 7 Overall 7.5

Orange juice haze in a draft pour. Fluffy head that lasts only briefly with lace on the sides.
Big smell of amarillo or too much citra hop, with lemon on the side.
Taste is bitter, piney and citrussy. Light malt is still there, almost at a light lager proportion.

The brew has a strong ginger nose as soon as I popped the cap. The pour shows a bright gold, like a ginger ale soda, but with a head that sticks together for a while, suggesting the presence of beer proteins. Taste is sharp with fresh ginger, familiar to anyone who’s had a fancy ginger ale. There also seems to be some citrus and maybe a few other botanicals, like grains of paradise, that would also be at home in a gin. Alcohol is subdued. To me, it’s a bit overly sweet. Anything that might be a good mixer ought to stay on the dry side and let other ingredients add some sweetness.

Pinkish brown pour, with some fruit particles suspended at the surface. Pleasant nose of strawberry juice. Taste is nice, slightly tart strawberry juice, with a bit of cream to it. Some bitterness and sourness keeps in balance.
