This red poured a hazy amber colour with a creamy, off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include malt, ripe fruit, earth, must and dough. First swig was pretty good. A little thin othe mouthfeel with flavours of must, caramel, malt and light toast. Finish is malty with a little hop bitterness lingering along with musty notes.

An extra deep brown head on a dark brown body. Nose is coffee and chocolate. This is an odd one. I am immediately hit by a slightly sour bitterness, followed by chocolate, mild coffee, and a touch of cream. There are some other unusual stout tastes, including cooked vegetables, cola and ash. The body and texture are a bit on the thin side, but not bad.

a fresh piney nose with bready malt. The taste profile features some piney hops and a mixture of fruit, including citrus, berries and maybe melon. The malt is very soft, sweet and bready - not a bad thing for an IPA. The body is a bit thin, though and I wouldn’t mind a little more richness for a iipa.

Pours a clear golden color with a medium white head that evaporates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Aroma of citrus, malt and yeast. Light-bodied with flavors of salty lime, yeast and doughy malt. The finish is citrusy lime and grainy malt. Slightly above average overall.

Dark copper, with a medium off white head. Aroma is very bready, caramel forward, slight nuttiness, hints of fig. Good mouth feel, medium carb, medium bitterness. Soft fruit, fantastically chewy cereals, caramel, and bread. Nice stuff.

Light citrus, light cereals, light bitterness. All in all it's a super light IPA. Tropical, and citrus zest, but muted and quite boring. Nothing special here.

Spice bomb. A massive pie spcie bomb. It's a mouthfull of cinnamon and nutmeg and not much else.

Can from the LCBO. Hazy copper, medium off white head. Aroma is quite resinous, but pine and spruce notes with some pithy grapefruit.. Mouth feel and carb is good.. Medium bitterness, dry, pithy finish.

Pale lager, with a hint of lime, and i cant say i'm getting much of this salt. The lime is nice, but the base lager is tasteless, and quite bland. Its fizy lime water with a touch of semi sweet cereals. not great, but passable.

Buttery Aroma, pale, corny malts.... Sweet, buttery flavour, cooked veggies and loads of diacetyl. This is a butter bomb.
