A unique spin on the standard IPA, with a dank and tropical fruit hop punch up front, backed by the caramel and toffee malt profile of an amber ale.

Poured from a 473ml can. pours a nice dark cooper with a lasting think head. A mild malty nose.
Not to bad IPA, somewhat on the malty side for me.
A pretty solid Red Though.

650ml bomber poured into tulip 14/11/16

a brownish amber liquid, large tan foam has great retention slowly falling to a thick film leaving spider web lace deep down the glass

S Swedish berries, iced tea powder, odd spicy notes, toffee and soft caramel all over the place, the fruity, hoppy notes are hard to pinpoint but mesh well

T more cereals, toffee, and caramel then the nose, not as much fruity notes that the nose had but still solid

M silky and creams up, mild bitter bite, slick on the palate, herbal caramel finish

O drinkable and solid at every point, nice red ale right off the bat and a few tweaks would make this something special

Well done for a new brewer, I rather liked this one and would drink it again if it hit the shelves in Alberta
