Ion Cannon is a strawberry-kiwi Gose that packs a brackish blast of tart berry character with a hint of pineapple from the yeast. But don't let its light, cloudy exterior fool you. The slow yet targeted burst of ionic goodness bypasses armour and structure to disable its victim's thirst faster than you can say "Fire!".

500 ml bottle
Served in a sour glass

This beer pours a turbid orangish yellow color. It is topped with an inch of off white head that leaves minimal lacing. It looks like a NEIPA really.

The smell is briny, sour, and full of fruity goodness.

The taste is fantastic. The salt, the sour, the strawberry, and the kiwi are in perfect balance. It is more on the sour side which makes me love it.

Pillowy, full mouthfeel. It is like my tongue is draped in velvet.

I have not had a lot of good strawberry beer, so I had lowish expectations. This beer is lined up perfectly for my palate. I love the smell, the taste, and the mouthfeel. I am so lucky that this was available on my weekend in Toronto. It makes me wonder what other brewers are doing to mess up their strawberry beers. The sourness is perfect. Great beer.

Lucky to live on the same street as Halo. Ion Cannon is a Gose with strawberry-kiwi flavors it hits you with a tart berry flavor. Its easy to drink quenches your thirst and is one of my favorites from the brewery.
