I'd assume this is similar to the Cabin Fever series IPA they had out a month or so ago.

Can't wait for this. I've never tried it but I'm curious to see what the Sorachi Ace Hops bring to the party.
I dig the packaging.

It reminds me a little of Beau's branding. Which isn't a bad thing.

I am looking forward to this one as well. I am always excited to see an Ontario brewery come out with an IPA ... especially one that I can get at the LCBO!

Man I can't wait for this! I love the Muskoka Brewery. Visited it for the first time last summer in Bracebridge and I will definitely be back this summer.

Wow this is cool, Muskoka could really bring it. Cabin Fever today was so delicious.

Their facebook page mentioned an LC and BS rollout, I imagine Muskoka and Toronto areas will get it first

I actually thought it
was a Beau's product when I first saw the ad.
Looking forward to trying it.

So is this an American style IPA that's going to beat Smashbomb to market? This is shaping up to be an interesting summer!

Anyone notice the discrepancy between the description and the ingredient list? Dry hopped with Cascade or Chinook? Obviously of utmost importance, I refuse to purchase the beer before I know the answer.

Does anyone know if it will be a swingtop? I lovem for homebrews

If I recall from the picture, they appear to be in 12 oz 6 packs. No swing tops.
