On tap at the Ceili Cottage. Pours a clear golden orange with a good-sized slightly off-white head. Aroma is has distinct, somewhat earthy citrus hops. Flavour has some caramel malt and earthiness but big citrus hops really dominate. Medium body and a fairly long bitter finish. A real credit to the Ontario brewing scene.

Tap at Beer Bistro and Volo. Copper coloured brew. Aroma is loaded with pine and sweet grapefruity citrus. Lean crisp malts with a bit of breadiness as well. Flavour is quite nice. Good balance of pine and malt with a firm bitterness on the back. Lingering piny resinousness. Excellent IPA.

Old rate. On tap at Volo in Toronto. Pours golden copper color with thin off white head. Aroma of pungent piney hops, mild malt back. Taste has some citrus hops mixed with pine, decent malt and mild fruit in the mix. Finish is lingering and puckering. One of my very favorite Ontario IPA’s.

sampled @ bierBistro in Toronto. Nice hoppy aroma in a caramel colour. Well balanced, and a little punchy, with pine hops and citrus squeezes. Yum! This place, btw, kick ass.

On tap at the beer bistro. Pours a vibrant clear orange-amber, with a nice white rim. Smell is juicy, dank, hop resin and California pine woods round. Inviting. Flavor is just plain hop dank. Wow. This has serious hop flavor. Strong, up front, and insanely fresh. Tending towards the British hop flavor characters, but still with tons of dripping resinous character. Wow. A base of caramel lays under for support. Long finish in dry, cascade-like hops. Nice.

On tap at C’est What? OUTSTANDING! Lots of pine and citrus grapefruit aromas. The intense hop flavor is great. This seems like a much stronger beer than the 5.45 ABV belies. Long lingering tongue drying palate.
