I haven't had the tinned one, just the draft, at Loose Moose over the weekend.
First-class effort which has a good rich malt sweetness, some estery notes, quite a firm bitterness in the aftertaste but no or little hop aroma.
I'd place it as an 1800's-style mild ale, i.e., light amber, on the sweet side, good hops to underpin the malt but without a big hop nose or hop flavour such as characterize an IPA of that era.
Very good to see this out there and I would think a cask version would be outstanding. Brewed at Big Rig in Ottawa. James Mistry's best formulation to date, in my opinion.
