78/4559) C'est What:  Purple Pacer by Bellwoods Brewery of Ontario in collaboration with The Veil Brewing Company of Virginia, U.S.A.:  ****; 6.5% American IPA brewed with oats; murky; nose is dank with mixed tropical and hints of grape and orange; mildly dank tropical notes with a bit of orange; dry after taste; remarkably smooth;

The intent was to create a hybrid between Bellwoods' Purple Paisley and The Veil's V Car series of beers.

79/4560) C'est What:  Krush by Town Brewery of Ontario:  ****; 6% hazy IPA; somewhere between hazy and cloudy; fresh citrus and tropical nose; citrus outshines tropical in the flavours;

80/4561) C'est What:  Almond Joy Roller by Counterpart Brewing of Ontario:  ***1/2; 6% stout; dark with a scanty head; sweet vanilla and coconut nose; flavours of vanilla, coconut and chocolate; 

Today was a Bellwoods beer release but was disappointed at lack of selection across participating pubs.  I interpreted the emails to indicate that there would be a series of one offs available across Ontario but it looks like I would have had to wait in the rain to get into the Brewpub on Ossington Avenue.
