Guest List

 Sold in 355mL cans, Guest List is a double dry-hopped pale ale from Toronto’s Rainhard Brewery. The 6% ale is hazy orange and pours with a thick fog of eggshell suds.

Guest List has a quirky fruit and floral aroma—it’s tropical with notes of stone fruit, but also quite perfume-y. The flavour has some depth, and blends in passionfruit, resin, and also a vague soapiness.

This beer has a bit more depth than many of the other DDH ales in Ontario, which is a plus, though the slight soap note is a bit of a distraction. Still, I’d enthusiastically buy this beer again.

Rating: 7.5 out of 10.
