Draft - Coffee, malts and some medicinal notes. Clear gold with a decent white head. Perfume coffee and a nice non descript IPA bitterness. Bitter coffee and IPA, both huge but both present, surprisingly good.

Bottle shared at The Cad’s 10 year get together. Thanks to Anders. 29/03/2015. Semi clear golden / orange coloured pour with a loose white head. Aroma is spicy orange, little dank hop, tangerine. Flavour is composed of tea leaves, dank hop, light biscuity malts, and a hint of caramel. Palate is semi sweet, moderate carbonation. Solid. Lingering orange.

Blonde with a little orange sitting below a creamy white head. Mild hay nose with grass, touch of resin hops, a little grass. Mild taste of sweet cerial malt, bittering hops, thoughts of tangerines. Not mind blowing just alright.

Bottle from the LCBO. Clear medium gold with a generous off white head that leaves spotty lace. Nose is bready malt with some floral and honey notes. Light sweet honey and fruit start with an unexpected medium light bitterness with some spice in the finish. Medium creamy mouth with soft carbonation. Not being a Pilsener fan I was pleasantly surprised.

Pours a clean golden colour with a slight orange hue. Big warm cap, frothy, long lasting and with wavy foam lacing. Fruity aromas with some pils hops of fresh mild grass and hints of Belgian Ale yeast. The taste is more where the pils hops shine. Nice grassy zest in the finish. Alcohol very well-hidden. Decent fruity malt. Becomes hazy at last pour. Not exactly what I expected. Just better. A nice limited release.

Bottle: Poured a light hazy beige color ale pilsner with a nice pure white foamy head with good retention and great lacing. Aroma of light cereal notes with light dry green hops notes. Taste is a mix between some light cereal notes with a dry light hoppy finish. Body is about average with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. A bit short on character overall but I enjoyed the way the residuals sugar was well balanced.

Bottle: Poured a clear brown color ale with a medium size light brown foamy head with good retention but minimal lacing. Aroma of candi sugar with dry plums and light candy ester is quite enticing. Taste is also a nice mix between some candi sugar notes with some candy ester and light dry plums and raisins notes. Cherry wood notes are noticeable and seems to ensure there is no rough edges on this beer. Body is bit light for style with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Quiet enjoyable beer even though it is not as great as some of the staple of the style.
