4/5  rDev +6.7%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Draft: Poured a pale hazy yellow color ale with a nice white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and a semi-dry finale. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and a semi-dry finish. Body is average for style with good carbonation. Enjoyable NEIPA but slightly lacking juicy flavours.

Wait what? A Stray Dog beer that I rate well?
In all seriousness, this is a good IPA that has lots of flavor and pretty good body.

Look is hazy orange gold, with a small head and good lacing.

Smell is juicy, orange and tropicals.

Flavor mirrors the nose with a slight grassyness from the hops also noticeable.

Feel is medium bodied with good carbonation. Finish is nice and dry with citrus pith.

I've given this brewer a hard time in the past, but this beer is pretty darn good. Hats off.

I believe I had a draft of this last night at Craft Beer in Lansdowne. I'm not 100% certain because I tried 4 small samples first (1 initially, and then 3) and the server was not totally reliable. I wanted to try a new IPA and had previously consumed virtually all the IPAs on the Craft list of regular IPAs. There were 2 possibles -- a white IPA (not a fan of the style) and another that I didn't like after sampling (weird aftertaste). That led me to the Hazy IPA list, which was longer and included many that I hadn't had while living in Canada. The server tried to push a couple of hi abv brews, though I had explicitly said I was looking for something under 7%. He disappeared for a long time, but I eventually ordered the Stray Dog. In the end, the beer I had was fine. It had a nice hop and was definitely more bitter than sweet. Dry.
