Bottled at pre-RBJG festivities in Kyoto. Lightly hazy pale amber, sall but firm head. Peachy hop aroma. weet and medium bodied with soapy, crystallic mouthfeel. Fruity peaches creates insufficent lacquer to cover the mediocre malt. A sketchy. rather tame IPA.

Bottle thanks to TimE. Light golden-copper color. Citrus, piney hops with warm malt in the nose. Flavor is dominated by peppery, piney hops, citrus as well, with light caramel malt and a hoppy finish. Malt is a bit too understated, though overall decent and easy-drinking.

2011-09-16, bottle from Point Grey, Vancouver, 7-4-7-4-14=36
Hazy amber color. Hoppy and footy aroma. Cood caramel flavor; the hopping is a bit vegetable, but the bitterness is strong. Unfresh.

Beautiful gold-amber color; medium sized creamy head. Aroma of malt, dust, dirty water, grass. The toffee flavor is ok, some malt; the mouthfeel is on the dry side, also because of the strong bitterness; but there are no really hop qualities. Not as good as the one I had in the past..

It has a light amber color, and a big rocky head. Very nice hop aroma, malt flavor, partially sweet, strong caramel flavor and strong bitterness. The hopping is excellent, resiny. The final too is balanced and long. One of the best beers in BC so far during my trip.
2008-07-17, draught at The Alibi Room, Vancouver, as Indian Head IPA, 7-3-7-4-14=35
Hazy blond color. It has a nice hop aroma, but that fades out quickly. Not much malt flavor, but for sure a strong bitterness, with quite good hop oils. Pleasant.

This ale pours a dark orange colour with a white frothy head. To the nose there is a light musty scent to this one. Along with a slight egg smell. Not too good off the start. You can kind of get a little hop and maybe some ripe fruit. First taste is very flavourful witha strong flavour of caramel. Some floral hop flavours. Hoppiness lasts with a slight bitter palate.

Bottle courtesy of CBA: Poured a dark black color porter with a nice foamy head with some good retention. Aroma of sweet berry is somewhat dominating with some light roasted malt notes also noticeable. Taste is a nice balance between semi-sweet berries and some light dry roasted malt notes. Body is a bit light with some better then average carbonation. I have to admit to being pleasantly surprised by that one since I usually don’t like fruit and porter to be mixed together.

Bouteille, courtoisie de Jean-Marc G. De couleur brune cuivrée et transparente. Nez malté de caramel légèrement terreux et aux petites notes rôties, de noisettes, léger de toffee ainsi que des notes de beurre et de houblon herbeux. Mince-moyenne en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-bas et une texture moyennement crémeuse, et aux notes huileuses et aqueuses. Léger goût de chocolat au lait lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute rapidement un goût malté de caramel toffee légèrement terreux et rôti (faibles notes de sucre brun), léger de pain et des notes de céréales puis en finale l’on retrouve un moyen goût de noix légèrement asséchante ainsi qu’un léger goût amer de houblon floral aux petites notes herbeuses et des traces de café doux. Post-goût moyen et aux notes sèches, légèrement amer de rôti, de notes café et de houblon floral-herbeux avec un goût de noisettes

Darkish amber colour and a head that is not really there. I guess the Canadians don’t really care too much about the head of their beers... eh. But it has a taste that ain’t too bad. It is a bready beer that tastes like a french bread. Little hoppy and boppy. Good shit overall. Hey Iike it. It tastes like anarchy and black metal. Metallic aftertaste though. Drink beer... eh.
