65/1883) The 3 Brewers, Heartland:  Fern, But Gentle by The 3 Brewers of Ontario:  **; cask night;  this is their Double IPA beer of the month with Citra and Mosaic hops; pours opaque with minimal carbonation; the extra hops certainly add sparkle and both feature on the nose;  smoother taste than the base and it lacks the sweet edge;

Named for Fern, winner of the draw following the Cask Battle.
