LIGHT & EASY SESSION BEERS

When did the term light get such a bum rap? Sometimes light is just what you’re looking for. Not every beer needs to be a flavour bomb; too much of that fatigues the palate.

Goose Island Endless IPA LCBO 459503, 473 mL, $3.15 (5% ABV)

A bright nose of clementine and fresh marjoram, a well-rounded maltiness and a cleansing finish keep you coming back for another sip.

Innis & Gunn Session IPA LCBO 519058, 500 mL, $2.85 (4.6% ABV)

A fine effervesce­nce leads into fresh bright white grapefruit and pine. Its sweet maltiness makes for a soft mouth feel; however, the American hopping keeps it sprightly, with a refreshing finish.

Railway City Express India Session Lager LCBO 498402, 473 mL, $3.15 (4.8% ABV)

A bright citrusy nose of tangerine, lemon pound cake and a touch of pine. Its lightersty­le body is able to carry a lot of flavour while remaining balanced and refreshing.

Muskoka Craft Lager LCBO 175810, 473 mL, $3.15 (4.8% ABV)

More mouth feel than your average lager, with a gentle offering of graham crackers and honey on the nose. It’s flavourful and malt-forward with an easy hand on the hops. Sessionabl­e indeed!
