The Pride of Nova Scotia is not something a beer geek would be proud of. Thios is an old turn of the century English IPA according to the beerhunter Michael Jackson. I'm not convinced that it is. A very clear pale gold with a thin white head. Aroma is corn, metal, and not much else. Flavour is just gross. The fact that I have not reviewed this before astounds me.

Clear light yellow with fast dissapearing white foam head. Aroma is weak, undefined - malt. Taste is too sweet for a IPA, not much bitterness. Aftertaste is again too sweet, very little bitterness. (Ottawa 201210)

This is a golden/blonde ale and not an IPA. How the company gets away with calling it an IPA. Colour - clear yellow, frothy head. Aroma - wet vegetables. Mouthfeel - thin. Flavour - metallic grains. Overall - awful.

Thin mouthfeel and a bit watery tasting. Smells like grain. Went down easily, but nothing at all like the other IPA I just sampled (Scotch Irish Brewing Sgt. Major)and nothing particularly memorable about this brew.

This is a funny LAGER. I love marketing. That said, if you put it up against Canadian.... not so bad anymore is it? Head is huge but fizzles in moments. Im getting something on the nose, obscure citrus note, honey air freshner(if it exists), mild yeast, touch skunky, but really not that awful. Easy drinking, bit watery, definately dry, there is an aftertaste that lingers a moment, and its not unpleasant. Maybe a bit grassy? Couldnt stop burping.....

Let me begin by saying I HATE IPAs!!! But I can't really figure out why, but i love this one. I guest would say that in my opinion this tastes nothing like an IPA, I think IPAs tend to have a terribly bitter after taste, while this has no after taste whatsoever. I also think a lot of IPAs are just... i guess sour is an okay word, not completely accurate, but close. LOVE AK IPA

How exactly is this an IPA again? I mean, they can call it Badger Piss and consider a stout if the brewer want's to. But it seems a bit misleading when you call a beer an IPA and it's nothing close to one (or even a regular pale ale). The beer poured out a clear, light yellow color with a tight fizzy 1" head. Aroma is lightly malty, and that's basically it. No hops, nothing to hang your olfactory senses on. Flavor is tangy, like Sweet Tarts, but also there's some honey-like sweetness there. Butterscotch and muted grains finish this off. Finish is dry and quick. Nothing lingering here. It was refreshing, and easy to consume. Just hard to fathom that this is called an IPA, when there's no way in hell it is.

Well, I look at this beer in a glass and I think, that's a nice beer. But them I smell it and it smells grainy. And then I take a mouthful, and its weak bodied with ample carbonation, and then I taste it...and I wonder what all the fuss is about. It tastes as good (or bad) as any other macro-swill

Standard crummy gold with big bubbs. Highlight here is the retention of a creamy white cap with nice lacing...go figure. The aroma is odd....fresh sour apple, slight malt, slight something else...whatever. Needs more. Taste is overall bland and I've never seen what the rage is all about, This has seriously lacked in flavour as long as I've known. Saying that, I have to say that the flavour is solid and never really bad so I guess that is what brings the peeps over from the standard Canadian or Labatt stuff. Some not quite standard Canadain malts, middle fruitness, man, it's dry. Finishes a bit flat, OK carbonation. Dry finish. Brutal on most taps in the city. I'll actually take this out of the bottle first. I must say ths though - THIS IS NO IPA. PERIOD. Just a better beer alternative. I don't entirely agree with it being classified as an IPA, and I'm not thinking American IPA either. LAGER.
