Ménestrel, une superbe Pale Ale brassée en collaboration avec nos amis de la Brasserie Ayawan. D'ailleurs, nous aurons une autre bière collaborative qui sera disponible dans quelques semaines. Ménestrel met en vedette le Simcoe et le Motueka, deux houblons que nous affectionnons particulièrement. Une IPA collaborative brassée chez nos amis avec les mêmes houblons sera disponible d'ailleurs lors d'un événement le 25 mai à la Brasserie Ayawan.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a medium white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and tropical notes. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones notes, some tropical notes and a semi-sweet finish. Body is full and creamy for style with good carbonation. Interesting juicy pale ale with nice tropical features without being overly sweet.

16oz (thx, Alex G.!) on Centennial Beach Appearance: murky golden with a white head. Aroma: some tropical fruits, a bit juicy. Taste: along the same lines, medium bodied, nice carbonation, slight hoppy bitterness in the finish. Overall: good one.

Hazy golden-orange colour with a creamy-frothy, warm-whitish head, good retention and good foamy lacing. Big orange juice aromas with a grassy-herbal touch, blended with the oats. Getting a tad cilantro in the taste from the Simcoe - which I do enjoy. Still, quite juicy, with citrus and other tropica-stonel fruits. A little floral hints lingers. Such a full, juicy-hazy beer, almost seems to be an IPA instead of a Pale Ale. This one has quite the punch.

A hazed golden yellow ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma nice crisp biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, tropical fruit, light dank notes, very nice. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light tropical fruits, very nice and classic. On tap at Hautes Plaines location.
