I bought a can at the LCBO in Ontario 473ml at 6.2%.
Poured a 2 finger head into glass.
Yellowish golden color a little hazy good carbonation.
Smooth and enjoyable hop taste not overpowering.
Yes the head lasted a long time half way through still holding a beautiful lace all around
Overall a very enjoyable beer to drink.
Cheers
Would buy again

Big relatively long-lived head, some fairly good lace. Hoppy and grainy aroma. Tasty hops without being overbearing. Comfortable to drink, but not as assertive as you'd expect a brut to be.

This is a wonderful IPA for non hopheads. It is delicious for the average person, like myself, who wants taste without being hit over the head with hops. I love this. This is the IPA for the rest of us. This is a wonderful find and I will enjoy this for as long as it's available.

Pours a light golden colour with a small loose head. Smell is bitter and hoppy. The taste is also quite hoppy and grainy. Nicely effervescent. I’ve had better Brut IPAs but this one is not bad

473 mL can from the LCBO; dated Sept 13 2020 and served slightly chilled.
Pours pale yellow and a little foggy, topped with more than an inch of soapy white head that erodes within five minutes or so. It deposits a beautiful coating of ringed lace on its way down; its eventual remnants include a frothy collar and filmy cap - looks very attractive in the glass. Its aroma is subdued, but pleasant - I'm getting grainy, crackery pale malt and orange, as well as lemon, white grapefruit and a touch of indistinct tropical fruit.
Pretty straightforward, but it's still a solid brut. Grainy, crackery pale malt sweetness serves as a backdrop, with hop-derived flavours of grapefruit, underripe stone fruit and mango. A little grassier towards the finish, with suggestions of grape must; mildly bitter aftertaste with lingering hints of citrus pith and tropical fruit. Medium light in body, with aggressive carbonation that remains spritzy well into the glass, providing much of the bite for this brew's crisp mouthfeel. Surprisingly refreshing, with no sign of the 6.2% whatsoever.
Final Grade: 3.92, a B+. Lost Craft's Skyline is honestly one of the better brut IPAs I've tried so far - though we're talking about a sample size of nine beers here, so take that endorsement with a grain of salt. I don't think I'd take this over their Eclipze, but in all fairness brut IPAs have never really been my bag. That being said, I can definitely appreciate a well-made one such as this - totally recommended if you enjoy the style, and if you're a hophead it's most likely worth the tick.

473 ml can served cold into a pint glass. LCBO purchase for $3.25 CDN. Canned September 13, 2020.
Appearance - Fairly pale golden color, minor bit of haze and topped with a beautiful two fingers of white head. Lots of bubbles, good staying power. Some sparse lacing lingers behind.
Smell - Lightly citrusy with hints of orange mango and grape. Not a terribly big nose. Some graininess backs everything up.
Taste - Light bitterness, hints of leafy greens, touches of lemon and grapefruit and subtle inclination of grape.
Mouthfeel - Medium bodied, great crisp carbonation and easy to drink, finishes off-dry.
Overall - Solid well executed Brut IPA, well worth a try if you like that sort of thing. Biggest thing is that the flavors meld together nicely and body is lighter and quite crisp.
