I thought this was a pretty decent pale ale to be had at the NSLC. I'd buy this again if I needed to buy beer.

Interesting. That jumps out at me every time I go to the NSLC, but I've never picked it up for some reason. I'll know to grab a can to try the next time I'm there now.

Jeez, and to think I feel lucky that my LCB has Tankhouse available right now. Wouldn't mind trying out a few more PA'a from the states for sure.
One more week when I go on holidays and I have a few unopened bottles/cans to try out including Arrogant Bastard.

Cold Hopped = Dry Hopped, I'm guessing.

Maybe you can explain Dry beer, Ice beer, and (my favourite) Dry Ice beer (I expected it to sublimate when I opened the bottle).
