GuillaumeCL (287) - Toronto, Ontario, - FEB 2, 2013
Can from the brewery. Pours a slightly hazy brown/orange with a whole bunch of foamy white head that dissipates fairly quickly. Smell is definite English hops, floral and slight fruit, that mixes well with a bit of roast malt. Palate is medium bodied with good carbonation. Taste is slightly sweet at first before launching into a well balanced hoppy bitterness which slowly dissipates leaving a hint of sweetness and roastiness to go with the bitter aftertaste. Very good taste.

Eructoblaster (2441) - Gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - APR 10, 2013
Can - 473ml. Hazy amber body with a thin off-white foamy/creamy head. Decent malty/hoppy aroma with fruity and candy hints. Its hoppy taste carries malty and grainy notes. Ends with a short bitter finish. Not bad.

Jayseppi (90) - Ontario, CANADA - MAR 18, 2013
Wow, wasnt expecting a whole lot from this one, but was pleasantly surprised. Poured a deep, burnt orange colour with a nice off white cap. Some hopping comes through in the aroma as well as some caramel from malts. The first sip was packed with flavour. A great balance between the hops and malts, with a ’juicy’ quality coming through, possibly from rye. Great beer.

pootzboy (1450) - Hawgville, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 14, 2013
on tap @bent Elbow - Pours a dark copper color with some orange highlights. Decent off white cap lasts. Moderate carbonation. Aroma is biscuity, lighty fruity with caramel and grass notes. Mild biscuit malty flavor balanced well with some robust Kent golding hop presense, fruity notes, long wet finish with a decent hop bite. A decent enough session pale ale in the British style.

TheJester (1458) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 5, 2013
473 mL (I think - maybe 500) can from the brewery. Somewhere between rusty orange and cola brown, with a lot of minute particles of suspended sediment. In the nose, there is some caramel underneath, but it is mostly Brit hops. Not a lot going on flavour-wise, but there is a nice bitterness in the finish. I’d like to see a little more from the malt, both in flavour and in body.
