Looks as beautiful in your glass as a lovely summer day at Sunnyside Beach. Gaze into the sun to get an idea of the colour of this unfiltered (brilliant gold, hazy) tasty treat, which is protected with a snowy head, reminiscent of white caps rolling on Lake Ontario. The citrus aromas leap from the glass with each gentle swirl. Lemon is the most prominent followed by pineapple and a touch of grapefruit. It’s so aromatic that you’ll want to forgo the sunscreen and apply generously to your person. Light body, juicy and refreshing, the same aromas make their way onto the palate, which are elevated due to the soft carbonation and mouthfeel. A dry finish with lingering pineapple notes, Sunnyside has all the flavours of a big GLB IPA packaged into a remarkably drinkable session ale. Terrific for the backyard, the beach, with friends, and in the shower before a big night out.

    The beer pours a slightly hazed medium gold with a large fluffy white head that quickly disappears. The aroma is stong on tropical fruit, some grapefruit, and a cereal malt backbone. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is dominated by the citrus and tropical hop notes, with a muted bitterness. This would be a very sessionable IPA

    Pours a hazy light-golden colour with an off-white foamy-frothy head, decent stay and lots of foam lacing. Beautiful fresh citrus aromas with oranges and grapefruits. Notes of grass and yeast sweetening things up. The taste is milder, with more grass bitterness over the fruitiness. Watery flavours, but does the job it needs to do as a Session. Just not so much an IPA, but the hops used in this one are quite good overall.

    Pours a fair size frothy off-white head and has a clear golden appearance. Some thick dirty lacing remains. Strong aromas of floral and citrus hops. Flavours are quite similar with the floral and citrus hops, as well as some lemony hints. Has grassy and piney hop notes also but more in the finish. Good retention. Nice balance between sweetness and bitterness. Sort of a tangy like finish on the palate as well. Good stuff and great for a hot summer day.
