Description
We are an East Vancouver craft brewery inspired by tradition and creativity, and go beyond the ordinary to celebrate that which is strange* and extraordinary. The beer we make is influenced both by old world traditions and West coast ingenuity as well as by seasonal ingredients. Our barrel programme promises unique aged beers, and we have a bit of a thing for sour beer.

473mL can. Pours cloudy yellow with white head. Aroma has very gentle pine and wheaty malts. Flavour is pretty wheaty with some pine and resin detectable. This is a very hop-backward pale ale.

473mL can. Pours cloudy pale yellow with white head that quickly disappears to nothing; pretty vile-looking. Aroma has coriander, esters, and spicy Belgian yeast. Flavour is perfumey; has woody coriander, spicy Belgian yeast, mild esters. Mediocre, but fairly drinkable.

Pale, no head. Sort of a chill haze. Thereβs some ropey sort of pedio on the nose with a but of a leathery accent. On the palate, medium acidity, a little sweetness, slightly leathery. Ends up being not bad - no sign of the ropeyness on the palate.

750mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of barnyard funk, some citrus, light acidity and the slightest of phenols. Flavour has lots of expressive barnyard funk, light band-aid, citrus, and lots of puckering acidity. Quite puckering and acidic, but also funky as hell, with aggressive carb. Get rid of those low-level phenols and you'd have something excellent. As is, good stuff.
