    473ml tallboy from LCBO. Pours an excessive amount of foamy tan head, but eventually settles into a very thin coating. Has a slightly hazy golden amber appearance. Some spotty lacing. Aromas of bready malts and quite fruity. Flavours are similar to aroma, with bready malts and more fruity notes. Average carbonation and medium retention. Good fairly smooth mouthfeel. Not bad.

    Dark copper body with a short lasting head. Dots of lacing. Herbal and pine aroma. Flavour is pine ,citrus, earthy and herbal. Malt sweetness in the background. Mouthfeel is thin to medium. The herbal hop flavour tastes like rusty water but that's kind of ok. Also just noticed a subtle peach flavour.

    Clear copper, big lasting, lacing off-white foam head. Nice hoppy aroma, clear citrus notes. Great bitter taste and lasting aftertaste. Good IPA again. (Velp 201511)

    Pours a clear, dark amber bordering on chestnut with a thick and fluffy, if not persistent, buff head. Aroma is hoppy and fruity, not strong but inviting. Flavor is better than the aroma, hoppy with both citrus and pomme underpinnings plus a hint of evergreen. Texture is firm and smooth, if not too tingly. Whatever, ramble to the nearest bar, package store, or growler depot that has it.

    A amber colored beer with a big creamy frothy textured light beige head rising above. There's decent hang time on the head. A thick ringlet and low hanging creeping film are left. A funky smell. A floral-citric hoppiness in a caramel malt backbone. Rich, slick body.

    A redish colored body with a frothy tan head that left some o.k. lace. Aroma is malt centric, sweet caramel and biscut malts, with some slight citrus hop notes, touches of wood and apple. Flavor is much the same with the sweetness from the malts being up front, with the fruitiness, ad slight touches of wood. Pretty sweet for a IPA, if thats your thing than go for it..

    Found this in the single section @ Publix, but haven't seen it in 6-packs since. Said "limited edition" so guess it's more of a seasonal. Surprisingly good, as their regular IPA seemed just average to me. More of a West Coast IPA like, similar to Torpedo, but with a slightly bolder oakey flavor. This is one that I will look for in the future.
