Bottle. Chocolate covered somewhat artificial berries. Dark brown, no head. Granola with blackberries and a bit fudge. Lightbodied, tinny mouthfeel. Refreshing and not the worst idea, but the execution could be better.

Pale straw colour. Light straw and grain aroma. The flavour is light but like crunching pale malt. Quick, indistinctive entrant to the lager stakes.

Hazy dark amber ale with a thick collapsing light moka head. Caramel malt in aroma with very light floral hops. Sweet malt taste, a bit too sweet and cloying, like unfermented wort, with strong diacetyl, and a lingering unpleasant faint hop juice. Medium bodied. Rather unbalanced and lacking something.

Reddish brown porter with a thin white head. Sweet caramel malt with black berries in aroma, light chocolate notes. Nice bitter chocolate with deep nuttyness and light berries in finish. Powdery dry porter, with medium body. A nice sweet porter. Tasted at Institut’s gambrinale, Outaouais, Oct. 28 2005. From Jean Marc in Coquitlam.

Quite hazy orange to light-amber brew; yellowish tinted medium head, rather stable. Sweetish cookie/cakes, even gingerbread nose with a lining of aromatic hops. Some mossy notes as well, and walnuts. Quite bitter initial taste, not really hoppy, part vegetal, part walnut peel, but nowhere metallic. The malt is too feeble in appearance to give more than an impresson of some caramel, that seems even scorched thanks to the bitter lining. The problem with a beer as this is in its inability to sustain extreme flavours. This is where British brewers with their casks could give some enlightening examples as to how things can be done. Dry, long bitterish aftertaste, not metallic. Laudable, but it falls flat somewhere - in the body. Another one thanks to Mike Poperinge.

Clear orange gold with amber hue; good creamy ochre-ish head, fast gone. Good American hops in the nose, grapey, but no overdose; cookie-like malt and Swedish dry wheat rolls. Dry & sweet but hoppy flavour with nearly no bitterness. Apricot cake, but with the inevitable hops. Not that I’m complaining! Light to medium bodied, quite refreshing. Good IPA, keeping well on the safe side of the top. Yields agreable flavours instead. Thanks, Mike Poperinge.

Orangey-copper colour. Woody, fruity, crystal malty aroma with a hint of sweat. Straightforward flavour of dust, woody hop notes, slight lime/berry fruitiness and crystal malts. Light bitterness. Finishes with a slight sweet edge.

Golden-copper colour. Woody, citric hop aroma with toasty hop notes. Bitter, citric flavour - a little woody but lacking in malt balance. A bit metallic in the finish. Not perfect, but hits the spot just fine. Not sure where the other raters aren’t finding hops - it’s a legit IPA to me.
