5.1
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 5.5

On tap at Yaletown, pours a clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted nuts and bready malt. Flavour is very mild, with bready malt, toasted crackery nuts and light nuttiness. Clean enough and decently balanced, but not exactly authentic and not interesting at all. Meh.

On tap at Yaletown, pours a cloudy bright golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is pretty subdued, with nutmeg and clove, not much actual pumpkin character. Flavour is murky and muffled, with light nutmeg and cinnamon, along with clove. Don't get any pumpkin. The spices are jumbled and not well-integrated. Not good.

On tap at Yaletown, pours a clear dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out English bready malt, subdued herbal hopping and some toasted nuttiness. Flavour is similar, with English bready malt, a stale character typical of many English ales, and light nuttiness. Not a good execution of the style at all. Poor.

On tap at Yaletown, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out crackery malt, some cereal and cardboard. Flavour is clean enough, with cereal malt sweetness, crackery notes and some bread. Clean enough, though a bit seltzery. Uninteresting.

On tap at Yaletown, pours a cloudy amber orange with a small white head. Aroma is very fruity, with heaps of oranges, apricots and tropical fruit, some coriander and spicy farmhouse notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with notes of apricot, spicy yeast and some esters. Spicy and fruity finish. Not particularly complex, but it works.

On tap at Yaletown, pours a deep dark reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out bready malt and light toastiness. Flavour is toasty, with plenty of toasted biscuity malt and a nice crispness. Nicely constructed, with a fairly authentic yeast profile. Solid.

On tap at Yaletown, pours cloudy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney and citrus hops, with some biscuity malt. Flavour is a nice cross between a piney IPA and a wit, with coriander, citrus and piney hops. Nicely spicy and piney. Carbonation is a bit soft, but it works. Good stuff.

On tap at Yaletown, pours a cloudy opaque golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of coriander upfront, with a touch of citrus and wheat. Flavour is along the same lines, with plenty of coriander and citrus upfront, with wheaty notes. It's okay.
