Badlands March DIPA.
Very tasty, almost reminded me of a Cowbell Boxing Bruin with what tasted to me like a bit of a candy finish. Later, I decided it was apricot I was tasting.
Now that I look at the description on Untapped: “ March 2020 features a unique blend of Nelson Sauvin, NZH-107, Hallertau Blanc and Galaxy hops. We taste notes of creamy white grape, tropical fruit, melon and peaches”, it was peach I was tasting. LOL, I suck at identifying fruit flavours.

Finally getting back on the road, have only been enduring the local Beer Stores selection.
Was in London today, and dropped by the Forked River Brewing Company, very helpful lady at the front desk, picked up a few of these:
Riptide Pale Ale Probably my favourite, nice flavour, not to hoppy.
Lo-Town American style Lager, pretty light (4.6%) by my standards, but very good quality. Probably made the mistake of drinking it after the 6.5% IPA (Interstellar IPA).

“Brewed with the bright, peppery buzz of Indian coriander seed and pithy zest I ness of fresh lemon peels, the ride is electrified with the clean intensity of cryo-hops-mosaic, citra, and idaho7.

If I recall, Hazy State was quite nice - enjoyed Surround Sound as well. Don't remember the others as it's been a while since I've had them.



This was probably the one I most enjoyed and will have to grab some more (they're not available at all stores but a quick LCBO search helps; not sure if No Frills will have it)

Had an All Together tasting today with a buddy! They were all slightly different. Some were more juicy and a couple were sweeter and malty. They were all good though.

Couple Richard trades. Subverse was good. The Henderson DIPA would have been better on a winter evening as it was aged in bourbon barrels and definitely tasted like it. Good beer, just not a summer beer.

You’re right about a beautiful day Richard! Outside most of the day. Had some shared beers earlier. Some from Richard some from some other local friends.

The sour IPAs weren’t my favorite but were decent on this fantastic day.

Trill Bill was delicious! As were Love Trip and Strictly Business. Thanks Richard!

Yeah-I think this week we'll have more of this so I think I'll do happy hour on the deck if I have any late afternoon meetings.

Haven't had any of the last 3 as yet but figured they'd be good as Bloodvar was so refreshing. Halo has been releasing sours so haven't gone back as yet.

How was the Halo Fruited IPA? I saw that at the brewery but decided to pass on it because of the whole fruit beer thing.

Cut and trimmed the lawn after supper... My reward was a Collective Arts Audio/Visual Lager. Went down real nice sitting on the deck admiring my handy work!

The Halo beers were ok. Not my favorite style. More sour than ipa. I’ve had fruited IPAs before that aren’t so sour. Sometimes I think ‘just make the beer and don’t add anything too it!’
