2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
355 ml bottle. Pours a foggy orange-amber with a thin white head. Smells slightly floral and herbal. Taste is slightly herbal, grains. Almost no sweetness, little taste too. Finish has an okay level of bitterness, lingers on for a few moments. Body is light, slightly sticky. Not the best IPA I had, but it felt good.

Pours straw colored with a white head. Nose of pale ale with some tangyness. Aroma not fit for an IPA in my (h)opinion (damn that was bad). I can’t name the aromas, very dull.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap.
Orangish amber brew with some white head. Nose is floral hops, grapefruit, and lots of caramel malt. Smells more like a Pale Ale to me. Muted hop flavor mostly dominated by malt.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Purchased at the SAQ beside the Casino in Hull, Quebec. Pours a slightly hazy golden-amber colour with a creamy cap that stays a while and leaves great tiny lace all around. Aromas of caramel malts over the hop and something that is less appealing (but can’t put my finger on what it is). Not much taste to this one. Hints of cereal and hard to find the hop. Mildly dry and not much else than easy drinking. An easy-going IPA for those who do not like too much hop, but want something slightly better than commercial ones.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Slightly cloudy golden beer with a very strong head. The aroma is mildly malty and hopped, and the flavour is very deeply dry and bitter with a long hopped finish. Overall a basic but very reasonable American IPA.

2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Meh. Nothing special to see here. Some up front cereal and a bit of a hop backing. Maybe some citrus in the middle. Very light and watery in the mouth with medium carbonation.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Pours a clear amber with a large chunky head, but it dissipates rather quickly. The aroma is cereal and corn. Moderately sweet base, with a distinct savory flavor of corn and lager yeast. Very strange. The finish is one dimensional and not very bitter. Lacks much hop character. It does in fact resemble a pale lager with an extra handful of hops. Excuse me, fuggles hops.

Une bonne bière, mais absolument rien de spécial. Belle apparence à la pale ale et beau collet bien stable. Amertume digne d’une ipa. C’est tout.
