Another beer from my mini Near North Ontario brewery trip and stop 2 from the day New Ontario Brewing Company is located in my other hometown North Bay. I went to College here and have great memories of this place. I still try to make it up regularly to go fishing with my college friend and adopted brother, Jack.

Let's try this one out.

Pours a clear honey amber with an off-white head made up of small bubbles. Aroma is peachy with pineapple, pine, light florals and hints of guava. The first sip is malty with a good hit of pine/spruce. Mild caramel with good hits of sweet tropical fruit. Tangy green hops round out the finish. Aeration gives us a warming sensation from the 5.1 % ABV (a little high for a session, but we are not complaining) Aeration also pumps the malt profile making it more bready, like toast with jam. Slight hints of honey round out the finish

Impressions: Fail, So-so, Pass, Exceptional
