473 ml can served cold into a tulip. LCBO purchase for around $3.50 CDN. Canned February 17, 2022.

Appearance - Hazy rusty golden color with a two fingers of frothy white head. Very good head retention and some streaky lacing left behind.

Smell - Fairly malty, a little pine, caramel and some light melon and cantaloupe aromas. Some orange in the background too.

Taste - Some grain, middling bitterness. A little twinge of pine and grapefruit, suggestions of melon. Fruitiness and juiciness is quite muddled.

Mouthfeel - Moderately carbonated, dry finish, medium fully body that is sticky, but not cloying with sweetness.

Overall - Ok IPA, not juicy in any respect and less fruity than virtually every IPA I've had in the last two years that's been "juicy". Drinkable, but eminently passable. Could be that a fresher can might make a world of difference.

Pours a hazy gold colour with a small head. The smell/taste is quite bitter with a white wine tone to it. I don’t taste any of the advertised juiciness. I don’t think I’ll purchase again
