Okay cloudy yellow and a bit of foam, soft sweet grain aroma. Flavour is a perfumy grain, sweet cucumbers even, with a dry finish. Not bad, refreshing, workable.

Bouteille de 650 ml du Canada craft Beer club. Un olfactif extrêmement terreux avec effectivement des notes de concombre et un aspect caoutchouteux. Un doigt et demi de mousse crémeuse, se maintenant de longues minutes sur un liquide doré pâle et voilé. L'aspect caoutchouteux et terreux domine l'entrée de bouche avec une déclinaison vers les concombres et une finale légèrement résineuse. Cet aspect désagréable de caoutchouc est vraiment dérangeant. Serait-ce dû à la levure Scandinave? Je n'en ai pas la moindre idée. On sent également un léger fruité en sourdine, mais en général sa complexité gustative est déficiente. Ça aurait pu être une bonne idée.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out light spiciness from the Belgian yeast and subtle biscuity malt. Flavour is quite spicy and vegetal, with notes of celery, floral notes and a strange yeast profile. Then the cucumber comes in slightly, finishing on citrus notes. A bit too vegetal and not enough fresh cucumber. It's okay.

Bottle, Legacy. Hazy straw, thin bubbly head. Subtle fruity note, touch of yeastiness. Dry, sort of a coriander and cucumber note, dry, dusty and malty.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Cloudy blond color. Crisp malt aroma with light grass and light coriander. The mouthfeel is very dry, the yeast character is quite strong, with spice, mild astringency, and some chicory in the final. There is also a peculiar watermelon note (I didn’t know that it’s brewed with cucumber).
Not bad.
