It’s ok I guess, but not an IPA in the strictest sense. Actually, Im not sure its an IPA in the loosest sense. Aroma is fait hops, metallic, and sweet. Taste is sweet, metallic, and grainy. BOdy is sparkling gold, average looking. The pride of Nova Scotia? Right.

Oct 12, 2008 IPA what? This is the most notoriously mislabelled beer in the world. It is regularly sold as a premium here in Ontario, though a blind taste test would make it hard to separate from other commercial macros. Bottle: pours golden, clear with almost no carbonation. The head raced to to disappear. The aroma is sour, faint with some weak citrus. Body is thin. In the flavour, there is bitterness, but it does not taste like hops. Bland.

Oct 11, 2008 If I had rated this beer 8 years ago before I had tasted actual good beer this would have gotten a perfect score. Undergrad in Halifax, anyways. This beer has absolutly no hops falvour compared to real IPA beers, probably why it is so popular. I drink this beer out of sheer nostelgia, because there are many better IPA’s out there, though Canada is Lager dominated so any mainstream ale seems to be different.

Oct 4, 2008 For an IPA it was weak to me, however, for a Pale ale, it was pretty solid. I’d drink more of it if available in the states.

does not count  Oct 1, 2008 If you dont like this beer you probably dont live in Nova Scotia. Most people outside of this province3 likes the taste of this beer but if you know someone who drinks it thats ALL they drink

Sep 26, 2008 Ugh. Not the best beer I’ve had in a while. Nothing like a good IPA, little to no hops. A little skunky. Overall just not good.
