337/2937) The 3 Brewers, Heartland: Celebration by The 3 Brewers of Ontario: **1/2; cask; 6%, 60 ibu; their IPA with Citra and Simcoe hops; billed as an American IPA; in effect the harsh edge is taken off; citrus notes mellow the dank, herbal hoppiness of the original IPA;
338/2938) The 3 Brewers, Heartland: La Festive Licorice by The 3 Brewers of Ontario: **1/2; 6.6%, 25 ibu; presented as a festive New England India Pale Ale; hybrid of a winter warmer and a NEIPA; multi grain ale with lactose and licorice; dry hopped with Simcoe; nose is sugary (dark sugar) and fruity; sugary with mild licorice and fruit;
I think the festive aspect marginally outweighs the NEIPA aspects.
