COVID19 beer clearing - realizing some unfairness to this item from 2018 (after a couple of less than stellar items from the Craft Cousins 4 pack) - do not age IPAs - that said probably not what it was intended to be but not at all bad.
Pours a hazy pale burnt orange colour with finger of off white frothy head and some floating particulate in the glass.
Hoppy citrus on the nose on a caramel malt base - over ripe orange, pineapple in background, and smell evokes memories of lemon loaf from my childhood.
Taste is caramel malt forward - ripe orange, hints of pineapple, slightly floral; there is a clear subdued (age related) hop presence but not without a touch of bitterness.
Medium mouthfeel on good carbonation that fades over time - leaving a slightly bitter orange rind with balancing sweetness at the finish.

473ml can - part of the 'Craft Cousins' mixed pack of collaborations with Alberta breweries. This one is with Blindman Brewing, and is a Hazy IPA.
This beer pours a cloudy, medium apricot yellow colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly dirty white head, which leaves a bit of spackled lace around the glass as things slowly recede.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, some orange, white grapefruit, and lemon citrus rind, a hard water flintiness, and some leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery caramel malt, muddled domestic citrus notes, an equally indistinct tropical fruitiness, some damp minerality, and more floral, leafy, and resinous piney verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-satiating frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with just a touch of hop acridity maybe not making nice with the locals here. It finishes off-dry, the mixed citrus frooty essence running the after-hours show.
Overall - this is a fairly respectable effort at creating an example of the (no longer) latest version of the IPA sub-styles. Crisp, well-rounded, and a pleasant quaff on a day where the ol' mercury is set to hit the mid-30s, Celsius. Screw that, I'm staying in my basement.
