750ml bottle from the lcbo. Earthy aroma, the ginger comes through, light tartness, grassy hops, sharp pepperiness. Reminds me of a hoppy saison. They are not really saying hat style this is. I wonder if they attempted a saison, or another begin ale with summer flavorings. The citrus doesn’t seem to make much of an appeal, but yhe ginger comes back in the end with an earthy fruitiness. Medium dry finish, light tartness.

From the LCBO, best before Oct. 10, 2013. Pours a golden colour with a frothy warm cap, good retention and soapy lace. Smells like a Belgian spiced ale, quite nice. Belgian Ale yeast at first pour with hints of maple syrup. The ginger comes out in the taste, mixed with the peppery hops. Kind of minty even, which is pretty different for a beer. I think the wheat gives out these maple syrup notes that balances things. I do not mind this brew (even with the different spiciness, and slight Scope effect), but one is probably enough.

A nice golden ale with a thick white head. In aroma, nice herbal hops, lightly floral, with nice lemon notes, faint solvents. In mouth, a smooth Belgian like ale with good hopping, citrus, light spices, well done! 750 ml bottle from LCBO, shared with family.
