Bouteille 650ml, courtoisie d’un contact de Victoria, BC. de couleur dorée-cuivrée. Léger nez de caramel très doux et de fruits(notes d’agrumes et de cerises sûres - contaminée?) avec de faibles notes de houblon floral et herbeux. Moyenne-mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture légèrement aqueuse. Goût légèrement sûr fruité (notes d’agrumes et cerises sûres, rappelant une infection) lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi d’un goût légèrement malté de caramel très doux (très faibles notes de butterscotch) avec des notes de pain puis une finale légèrement amère de houblon floral aux notes herbeuses (quelques notes citriques également présentes) et un peu sec de noix. Post-goût moyen, légèrement amer de houblon herbeux et floral. (2006)

Bottle from Firefly, Vancouver
Hazy amber color; small sized head. Light aroma of caramel and vegetables. The body is quite weak, the mouthfeel dry; there is a minimal caramel flavor and a breadish character; quite low bitterness.
Bad.

I gotta say that the labelling on these beers certainly looks one step below professional, which could mean great things (cool obscure local brewer) or horrible things (forgettable obscure local brewer). It pours with a fine amber body and a decent layer of head. Aroma is weird fermented skunkiness and swampwater with a hint of malt. Flavour is weird grass and malt with a dry finish. Based on this beer, I’m leaning toward calling the brewer closer to the latter.

Pours a golden orange. Almost nonexistent aroma of grains. Flavour is a boring balance of hops and malt. Not too bad.

Golden copper ale with a thin white head. Sweet yeasty aroma, with light nuttyness amd medicine notes. In mouth, an infected mess, with vinagry malt, and rubber. Unpleasant and a drain pour.

Dull amber colour. Aroma is doughy, sweaty. The flavour is equally bland - vague maltiness, shy hops, slightly sweaty yeast note. Quick, sweetish finish. With the BC ubiquiyeast and EKGs, this beer doesn’t have a chance in hell of scoring well with me because it tastes like every other amber in BC. I’m big on distinctive beers, and this isn’t.
