This ale poured a Golden orange colour with a quick living, bright white head. To the nose there are scents of hopps, caramel, malt and pineapple citrus. First taste was pretty hoppy with sweet citurs flavours. Grassy notes along with a bitter / hoppy finish. The palate was nice and hoppy with bitterness lingering and the slight flavour of juniper there as well.

This Ale poured a deep, dark red colour with a nice big light brown head. Nice lacing. To the nose there are scents of thick dark malt, molassass, caramel and roasted grain. Maybe a little chocolate? First taste was rich but had an almost watery base. Roasty malt flavour with hints of coffee, molassass and cocoa. The finish is burnt in flavout with a little hopp shining through. Palate starts off burnt and conintues through to a little tinge of bitter flavour. Very good, pretty rich.

This lager poured a light golden colour with a quickly dissipating head. To the nose there are scents of hopps, juniper, citrus and dough. First sip was smooth and flavourful with flavours of caramel, butter, hopps and a little spice. Finish is slightly hoppy with a little bitter value there along with a little...smoke? Palate is also slightly hoppy with bitterness lingering. Seriously underated.

A deep dark stout with a thin moka head. Aroma of chocolate nougat, with light honey notes. In mouth, a nice lightly bitter chocolate, very sustained, with nice sweet honey in beginning, nutty notes. Medium bodied. On tap at Wellington Gastropub, June 16 2009.

Cask: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a light foamy head. Aroma is dominated by dry roasted malt with light coffee notes. Taste is dominated by lightly astringent coffee notes with some lightly bitter roasted malt notes. Body is thin with a watery final. I can’t say I was overly impressed and I find that beers from this brewery are a bit thin.

Can: Poured a light dark ale with a small foamy head with minimum retention and lacing. Aroma consists of lightly roasted malt with little else noticeable. Taste is also dominated by some light roasted malt with some even lighter caramel note. I thought this was way too watery and thin to be truly interesting.

Can: Poured a light amber color ale with a good size foamy head with good retention and good lacing. Aroma consists of lightly sweet caramel malt with not many other discernable characteristics. Taste is dominated by some lightly sweet caramel malt. Medium body with some OK carbonation. No hint of peat smoke or fruity ester. Not bad with no identifiable brewing flaws and easily quaffable.

Very dark brown. Slightly chewy, soft toffee aroma with light diacetyl. Heavy toasty palate. Light toffee and some late sweetness. Decent brew, not totally cohesive but fills the belly with goodness.

Light amber color, very fizzy, medium head. Sweet, caramel aroma, similar to their Scottish PA, with toffee, cherries, butterscotch. Buttery, caramel flavor. Sweet but not too much so. Slightly creamy, with a bit of hops. Finish dries out a bit, with more hops and even a touch of citrus in over the malt. Light to medium body, slightly high carbonation. An interesting lager, similar to a Vienna, with a malt signature like their PA. It is sweet and full-flavored but very well balanced. Not fabulous, but good drinking and interesting.
