this is another amazing seasonal from Amsterdam (second to Tempest, not talking about their Bock or Orange beer) i'd compare it to Founders Harvest or Sierra Nevadas Northern Hemisphere. didnt get any off flavours as you described, just full on fresh hop blast all over the palate. dank nose too, exa...

anyone had a Muskoka Harvest Ale yet this year? How is it drinking? I have. It's drinking nicely, similar to last year's, IIRC, with the ABV bumped up even slightly more. Anyway, I like it, but at its current price point, I can't justify many more bottles. I'll have it again on draught, for sure. B...

Bellwoods Roman Candle IPA---had a bottle of this last March and wasn't that impressed; I mean it was good, but bitterness more than malt/hop flavour seemed to dominate. Tried a bottle again yesterday-- gold in colour, it had awesome aromatics---leafy resinous hop, balanced flavour and bitterness--...

Lone Pine IPA - really great nose, reminded me of some Michigan brewed American style IPAs...unfortunately a very watery and minimal flavour. let down by the taste, didnt hold up. and then theres the bomber format...another disappointment. not a big fan of those for IPAs.

a nice try but wont revist
