At my lady Pamela's house; canned and chilled, from their Summer Beer League boxset from my favourite The Beer Store on Goyeau St. in nearby downtown Windsor. My first beer from the Sarnia, ON brewery.

473 mL can from the LCBO, included in Refined Fool's Beer League summer mix pack. Dated Apr 29 2024 and served barely chilled.
Pours a foggy pale yellow colour, producing more than an inch of frothy, foamy white head that lasts for three or four minutes. A creamy collar and sudsy cap remain, with a modest smattering of lace - looks alright. Lemon zest and grassy, floral hops on the nose, with hints of grainy, wheaty malts and orchard fruit.
It tastes fine, but there's not a lot of character to it. Grainy pale malts, some light bready sweetness and citrusy hop flavours of grapefruit and tangerine, leading into a grassy, floral finish; crisp, dry aftertaste. Light in body, with moderately active carbonation that adds some bite to this brew's otherwise smooth mouthfeel. Quite crushable.

Another tallboy from another mixed pack; dated Mar 31 2025, so quite a bit fresher than last time. Physical Inactivity is fine and all, but I don't think it stands up to some of the Fools' other pale ales, e.g. Pouch Envy, an O.G. brew that is nearly always available. On the plus side, it's effortlessly easy to toss back. I like this beer, but in a thematically-agreeable turn of events, I doubt I'll get off my ass to buy some more.
Final Grade: 3.65, a B grade.
