Un air d'été ...

Pilsner blonde de type « Mûnchner Helles » faite avec du malt bavarois. Au nez, on reçoit une explosion de malt et de houblon. En bouche, elle est douce et complexe alors que le houblon floral et le malt se retrouvent en équilibre. La Brise du lac est une bière haut de gamme qui se marie avec tout ce qui est léger.

On tap at Archibald - Montreal Airport, pours a clear dull yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out cereal grainy notes and toasted malt. Flavour is along the same lines with crisp biscuity malt and grainy notes. A bit seltzer, but it works.

Can enjoyed from a mason jar at my hotel room in NL. Spirited carbonation gave me trouble pouring. Slightly hazy dark yellow color with a huge bubbly white head. light bready crackery pilsner malt hints of floral hops and a touch of clove that shouldn't be there.

On draught at Trudeau Airport, 4/18/15
Small white head fades to cover atop a clear, blonde body.
Light hoppiness in the nose shows not much more than a dusting of pepper and dry hay. Some bitter notes are consumed by a slightly unsettling vanilla-cream-like sugar note. Somewhat strange, almost waxy, not sure what it is (partial grain brewing? Don’t know). Other than that, it’s wholly inoffensive with no alcohol and no DMS/diacetyl.
The flavor is very wet, watery, extremely lightly hopped (again, just some very light herbs, minimal peppery bitterness) with loose carbonation and a rather lifeless feel to it. Sugars are much too high, resulting in a not very refreshing beverage with more of that weird vanilla-waxiness. Probably not as bad as I’m making it sound, but I didn’t stay for a second....Based on the ratings, looks like I should have started with the L’insoumise, but it takes a deeply disturbed individual to pick the English Pale ale as their first beer at a brewery.

Draught at Archibald - Aéroport de Montréal
Blond color with no head. Dry, a bit crisp and grassy, not spectacular but just enough to elevate above the most common mass Lagers.
