I tried this beer on draught on March 9, 2012 at "c'est What" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer was poured a translucent dark burgundy colour with a thin white ring of a head. Aroma was sweet fruits like plums with hints of caramel, molasses, and grains. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour is sweet and fruity...almost fruity enough to be a turnoff. Flavour has similarities to their Dragonberry pilsner. It's certainly a sham if you ask me. -

If only wheat beers looked better! -

650ml bottle
8.4% ABV (as written on bottle)
I tried this beer on March 1, 2012 after purchasing from the Queen's Quay LCBO outlet in Toronto, Ontario. The beer poured a slightly hazed golden red with a generous long lasting tan head. The aroma was hop heavy with a lot of citrus and grapefruit notes and some caramel and bread. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavour is primarily grapefruit with some piney notes. Very good, but not the best DIPA I've ever had. -

I tried this beer on draught at "C'est What" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer pours a hazy golden colour with a weak off-white cap. The aroma is blackberry, some greains, and weak floral hops. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was tart fruit, weak grains, and some bitter hops. Not something I would try again as this brewery has better beers.
