A lightly hazed golden ipa with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with light grassy hops, light acidity, pleasant and mineral. In mouth, sweet fruity malt loads of chalky character, light acidity, not very hoppy, disappointing. On tap at Lupulus.

Can: Poured a black color porter with a brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of roasted malt with some floral coffee notes is enjoyable. Taste is a mix of dry roasted malt notes with some dry floral coffee notes. Body is a bit thin with good carbonation. Not bad but nothing to write home about.

Bottle: Poured a clear dirty amber color ale with a large off-white foamy head with OK retention and some light lacing. Aroma of sour notes with some acidity and light cherry notes is OK. Taste is also a mix of sour notes with some excessive acidity, light cherry and oak notes are also perceptible. Body is about average with good carbonation. Unbalanced with too much acidity for my taste.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy orange color ale with a small foamy head with some retention and lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops notes with clearly identifiable lactose notes is OK. Taste is a mix of lactose notes with some citrusy notes and mild mango notes. Body is full with limited filtration and medium carbonation. Not bad but overly sweet and hops could have been more pronounced.

This dark lager poured a near black colour with a nice, creamy brown head. Minimal lacing. Scents include caramel, toast, light coffee and a little smoke. First swig was a little thinner than expected with flavours of coffee, caramel and smoke. Finish is burnt with caramel and coffee flavour lingering.

This stout poured a deep black colour with a creamy brown head. Nice lacing. Light on the nostrils with scents of cooked veggies, soy sauce and a little smoke. First swig was creamy with burnt toast, a little cocoa and some light coffee on the palate. Finish is nice and burnt with coffee and burnt flavours lingering.
