Flight pour at brewery. Pours clear copper with white head. Aroma is rubbery. Flavour has sweet malts, pine, burnt rubber. Infected or bad, it doesn't really matter.

Poured from the tap. Clear amber yellow with small white head. Caramel and biscuit malt, clean, simple, a bit boring.

On tap. Pours a brown amber with little head. Really just a malty drink with not much more to speak than the industrial draft it was replacing.

Mellow down town Julie Brown on the body with some matter of factual white foamy head. Soft amber aroma, coppery sugar. Flavour is malt and brown sugar lacking fullness but still with that dry finish. Kind of hit and miss, a few things to note here but it's far from a stellar amber.

Draught at the brewery
Clean amber color. Some caramel aroma and flavor, dry mouthfeel but with good body structure, light fruity esters.
Very basic, but not bad.

Amber, touch of haze and med head. Caramel malts and earthy hops. Same palate...old school amber. Quite sweet.

On tap at East Van, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out biscuity malt and a hint of sweet caramel. Flavour is along the same lines, with sweet bready malt, a touch of caramel and very restrained hopping. Unexciting and pretty underwhelming. Meh.
