[1] Review by lenusik from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer once. (8/18/2008 12:36:35 AM)
"This beer was a pleasant surprise. The beer is clear, reddish in colour, and has a decent tannish head. The aroma is floral hops, with some maltiness in the mix. The flavour is citrusy hops, and grainy malt, all nicely balanced."

[2] Review by cyrenaica from Milton, Ontario, Canada who has tried this beer once. (1/10/2008 11:27:53 PM)
"341ml bottle
6.5% ABV
I tried this beer on January 10, 2008 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto. The beer poured a hazy orange-gold colour with a thin white head. The aroma was very hoppy with perfumy and citrusy tones. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with medium to high carbonation. The flavour was definitely strong on the hops with a definite grapefruit flavour. A nice bitter finish."

[3] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer once. (6/16/2007 8:08:45 PM)
"On Tap at the Castle
Tapped a lush dark orange with a sticky rich 3 finger cap that laces well.
Rich juicy citrus (Grapefruit) and floral tones over copious toffee- bready malts.
This is a luxurious ale in the mouth, silken, rich, dripping with Cascade hop cone citrus and balanced with sweet malts with a woody-earthy under tone...finish is profuse...bloody marvelous...the best IPA in this Ontario market hands down.
