Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Clean copper color. The aroma is a bit earthy. Sweet caramelly flavor, a bit too chewy, but with good malt depth; resiny hops, a bit earthy. I’m not sure this checks as Equinox. It’s too chewy, old style, but still a good beer.

Deep amber, bright. Sweet crystal-focused malts. Light biscuity note. Minty, rich malt character, and a fair bit of hop bitterness. Old school, but good.

On tap at St Augustine's, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out herbal hops and toasted malt on good balance. Flavour brings out a strange herbal hoppiness that has a sort of vegetal quality, along with toasted chestnuts and bready malt. Bizarre stuff - not sure if this is the hop variety or a slight off-quality. Decent.
