On tap, nice pronounced head, aroma carries some floral and citrus hop, orange zest in there too. Very refreshing in the palate, sweet vanilla up front with a nice subtle bitterness on the back. Cheers.

Strong, tangy IPA - lots of bitter. Lots of extra hops. This has a spice to it beyond the hoppy bitters, and there are a lot of those. A classic IPA. On tap at Burger Bar.

aka Hoppy IPA. A melange of Amarillo, Centennial, Cascade,Galaxy, and Northern Brewer. A good rich citrus. Average mouthfeel. Reflecting late, dry hopping for the most part. Very good drinkability. Hazy orange-grapefruit appearance. Spot on American IPA. Hoppy citrus aromas.

UPDATED: FEB 26, 2012 [3970-20110921] Tap. Citrusy lemon juice hops aroma. Clear, orange body with a long-lasting creamy off-white head and some lacing. Fresh orange lemon bitter hops flavour has a wonderful lingering bitter bite. Medium-full body is bitter and lively. Delicious citrus overtones and balanced with bitterness, this is dangerously drinkable. (9/4+/8/4/16) 4.1
(TBW 2011 @ Burger Bar, Toronto, ON)
[4202B-20111218] Tap. Light mango fruit aroma. Clear, orange brown body with a medium-lasting foamy off-white head. Bitter orange mango hops flavour has a sweet lemon aftertaste. Medium-full body. Quite tasty. (7/3+/8/4/16) 3.9

3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 blankboy (4454) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 23, 2011
Draught at Burger Bar. Pours a clear golden-orange with an average size lasting frothy/creamy off-white head. Decent lacing on the glass. Aroma has a good amount of floral & citrus hops along with caramel malt, some light sweetness and fruit -- nice. Flavour of floral, perfumy hops, a bit sweet, along with caramel malt, a bit of yeast and a decent bitter finish. Medium bodied. Quite good, I really enjoyed it.

Lovely amber/copper with lingering head. Amazing aroma in this one of fresh citrus hops. Taste is similar, but doesn’t quite have the malt backbone to match. Impressive though!
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 jerc (5591) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 22, 2011
UPDATED: DEC 20, 2011 2011-12-18. Orange body, nice off-white head and lace. 3+ Nicely hoppy in both aroma and flavour, but not crazy so, starts a bit green and leafy, mild citrus. 7+ Aroma is similar, pleasant hoppy character, modest greenery and citrus. Average plus palate. 3+ Less citrus forward than I remember it being (assuming this is the same recipe) but still nice 7/4/7/3/16 On tap as "Hoppy IPA" at Brewer’s Market, Toronto
2011-09-21. Crisp orange body with a nice creamy off-white head that lasts forever, and nice lace. 4+ Aroma has a good amount of hops, modest citrus and green leafy character. 7+ Flavour is rather well balanced, nice citrus hops and mild leafy green hops with just a kiss of resin. 8+ Average plus bodied palate suits the beer nicely. 3+ Orange and citrus character grows as you go. Really nice, it does not have the intensity or oomph of some IPAs, but it is ultra-drinkable. Delicious. 7/4/7/3/17 - 3.9 On tap at Burger Bar, Toronto
