D’un bel orange ambré, la MacTavish s’écoule inéluctablement du verre laissant comme unique trace une belle dentelle de Bruges. Alors que quelques bulles s’échappent du liquide, des effluves de houblon vert, de terre ancestrale et d’épices se mélangent aux traditionnels parfums de noisette et de caramel des ales anglaises. En bouche, fraîcheur et acidité s’accordent aux saveurs maltées de biscuit et de caramel. Le houblon laisse alors une bonne amertume et ne confère sa verdure qu’en rétro-olfaction. La finale est sèche, subite et totalement désaltérante.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a hazy pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is dry and crisp, with crackery malt and crisp grassy hops. Flavour is similarly crisp and very clean, with grassy floral hops and very crisp crackery malt. Dry, crisp and clean, but not overly exciting. Decent enough.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Hazy blond color with small head. Citrusy hops aroma, mild, with a touch of malt. Semi-dry and lean mouthfeel, but also soft; the blend of malt, breadcrust and gentle citrusy hops is appealing; correct bitterness; notable for the presence of pale malts till the far final, not dominated by the hops.
Very well brewed; elegant and harmonious.

Hazy palish tan. Aroma has light spice and mangoes. Sweetish biscuity malts up front and a dash of citrus at the back. Ok, maybe not the brightest pale.

Bottle @ Van Moll Tasting shared by Dutchdrebus. Slightly unclear golden color, small white head. Aroma is not entirely fresh, but still decent. Taste lightly malts, lightly hoppy, slightly bitter. Easy drinkable.
