A smooth, rich amber ale with hints of caramel, vanilla and winter spices. Citra hops add a distinct and refreshing citrus flavour and aroma while balancing with a robust and slightly sweet malt base.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Brown color with red-brown hue, compact head.
Very light aroma. Strong flavor of dark caramel, some burnt sugars that ruin the palate, and an aftertaste of old chocolate, maybe vanilla; some of the bitterness comes from the malts.
Difficult to figure out what this wanted to be; not pleasant overall, it’s off target and it’s excessive.
