I didn’t necessarily enjoy this brew. Many have posted it is not a true IPA, and I agree. I found it had tastes of light hops, and in the aftertaste i hap wisps of tomato and vegetable. Not my favourite, thats for sure. Personal opinion.

Nothing really special about it, This would be a pretty good at a BBQ.
Overall a pretty average beer.

Dec 28, 2009 If the label said ’lager’ I might give this a higher rating, but as an India Pale Ale this is just not good. No complexity whatsoever. A bit more hoppy than your average lager, and there’s no ’skunk’. Other than that it has a slightly metallic flavour and it’s on the sweet side. Extremely easy to drink, and I had a couple at a pool party where they went down nicely.

Dec 25, 2009 Better than a typical macro lager, but not by much. Tastes like a light lager with a bit of hops.

Dec 14, 2009 Pours yellow into a shaker. Bright white head recedes to skim surface. Mild malt aromas. Sour lemon upfront with a dry, abrupt slightly bitter finish. Not an IPA.

Dec 7, 2009 Bottle at the Faculty Club, University of Toronto, courtesy of MSF.
Cloudy orange yellow with a large white head that leaves quickly and has good lacing.
Banana and bubble gum aroma with a bit of citrus.
Slightly sour, nice hops, well balanced with malt.
Decent body for an IPA.
Overall, acceptable, but not special.

Nov 20, 2009 If this is an IPA, then they took the style to it’s inglorious roots: Brew a lager, throw in some more hops so it still tastes like something after swilling around for months in the cargo hold of a ship heading for the colonies, and serve it when it has become as bland as any unsophisticated british lager would be. It’s the kind of stuff to drink when you are in a place that otherwise only sells Bud, Miller and Corona.

Oct 31, 2009 bottle thanks to cavie. Pours clear yellow, thin and fizzy. Aroma has no hops, surprising for a self-labeled IPA, some sweet malts and not much else. Understated, general malty flavor, not a great beer but a good rate!
