Hazy amber color, medium sized creamy head. Light caramel aroma, stronger caramel flavor, correct bitterness; there is a grassy aroma too, later some very light nice hop appears. Unexciting.

2008-07-30, draught at The Railway Club, Vancouver, 4-3-5-2-8=22
Brown color. Light aroma, not interesting, almost cardboard. Caramel flavor, no Cream here... Boring.
2008-07-16, draught at Steamworks (?), 5-3-5-2-10=25
Nice light brown color. Light aroma of Asian kitchen (?). It has just a plain favor, caramel and roasted malt, dry mouthfeel, dirty water? No interest.

Hazy amber-brown. Estery nose (apricot), some phenols (bubblegum), hints of brown sugar. Sweet palate. Finish has hints of spice and alcohol. Ap 3 Ar 7 Fl 7 P 4 O 13 = 3.4

Dull garnet colour with no head and large bubbles. Heavy bubblegum and light florals & raisins. Thinnish body for style. Vague phenols on the palate, some flat malts...this really didn’t translate to the bottle much. Ap 2 Ar 5 Fl 4 P 2 O 7 = 2.0
