Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Hazy dark shade of blond. Very bland aroma. The mouthfeel is rather dry but not weak; small presence of malt, and balanced bitterness, lightly earthy, but really without much quality.
Clean. Simple but ok Pale Ale.

On tap at Victoria Caledonian Brewery & Distillery, pours brings a cloudy golden yellow with a large white head. Aroma is fairly hoppy for a saison, with rustic farmhouse notes, some citrus and cereal malts with a touch of residual sweetness. Flavour is fairly authentic, with that rustic saison quality upfront, followed by sweet cereal malt and a decent amount of stone fruity hoppiness. A little sweet for my taste for a saison, but it's very competently brewed. Solid.

Draft - Pale malts and some bready notes. Clear gold with a decent white head. Bready and some pale malts. Very English no real hop presence, easy drinking and a bit plain.
