Day 283-Beer 283 Canuck Pale Ale, Great Lakes Brewing Co. Etobicoke Ontario

Although they call this one a Canuck Pale Ale it is in fact an American Pale Ale, see July 23 for a description of American pale ales. This one  poured a hazy golden/orange colour with nice creamy head that left some spotty lacing around the edge of the glass. The aroma is a citrus cocktail, grapefruit, tangerine, orange zest with a hint of tropical fruits. The taste has a hint of pineapple and caramel as it first hits your mouth, with a nice creamy feel than the hops begin to kick in with a nice grapefruit and orange zest bitterness but nothing overbearing and a nice dry finish that leaves a hint of caramel on your palate. Overall a very good brew, I know I will try this one again 3.9 out of 5
