Canmore Brewing Company 3rd Double IPA – American Double / Imperial IPA at 6.5% ABV (C$4.18 at Collective, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 24-Jan-2020, reviewed 3-Feb-2020)
Appearance: hazy pale amber with a short fine ivory head diminishing to a thick persistent cap, soapy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: caramel, wet cardboard, stewed fruits, acetone. (4/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (5/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, medium bitter fruity finish. (3/5)
I think I got an oxidized can. Brewer says “Hop forward with a bit of a fruity finish.” but I got malt, wet cardboard, and a hint of nail polish remover. A disappointing sink pour. (10/20)
