Sawdust City Twin Pines
Have to post a review. So glad to call these guys my "local", another superstar offering from Corbeil and Co.
473ml from the Brewery on release day.
8.8% ABV
88 IBU
Continuing the trend from this years incredible 11.07, this thing is amazing. Citrus and Dank, really well attenuated. Hides the 8.8 really well, could drink gallons of this stuff, incredible aroma. Can is the perfect vessel, IMHO.
Look out Lackey.

Well hidden, perhaps, but there nonetheless. After "gallons", I'd wager you'd completely forget how good it was.elproducto wrote:Hides the 8.8 really well, could drink gallons of this stuff.
Seriously though, I love the Lone Pine and look forward to trying this.
Having said that, the last couple of Lone Pine cans I had weren't up to standard; maybe they were just a little old, not sure. Won't give it another thought unless it happens again next time.

Drinking a Lone Pine I picked up from the brewery on Friday, and it's fantastic. Maybe just LCBO storing it in the heated room
What's nice about Twin Pines, is it's not just Lone Pine x2, totally different hop bill.

I believe it's a reference to Back to the Future. Lots of references on the can to those films.TheSevenDuffs wrote:Really? Then why call it Twin Pines?elproducto wrote: What's nice about Twin Pines, is it's not just Lone Pine x2, totally different hop bill.

Sitting at 8.8% abv, Twin Pines is a bigger sibling to the brewery’s year-round Lone Pine IPA, and also a sly reference to a scene in a classic 1980s sci-fi comedy.
Tallboys ( Bloor & Ossington ) has cans of this. I had one this afternoon. Wow!
It's also on draft at Indie Ale House and others
Very smooth, with a great nose! 5 types of hops.
Much better than Lone Pine.
I love my regular brewery sources in the GTA and Burlington, but this one leaves the rest of Ontario IIPAs in its dust ( IMO )
Be sure not to miss this one!
