Verre en plastique, 4 onces, en fût, au Festibière de Gatineau, savourée le 3 février 2017; œil : dorée, anneau de mousse blanc cassé, pas de dentelle; nez : fruité, cendré, malt, houblon; bouche : fruité, cendré, malt, houblon, finale fruitée avec présence de malt, corps moyen, carbonatation moyenne, moyennement amère, légèrement sucrée, texture granuleuse; en résumé : correct

Pours a cloudy golden-orange colour with an off-white head, average retention and some decent lace. Spicy nose over the wheat sweetness with nice yeast. The taste is milder, not as rich as some hefeweizen that are hard to finish. Cloves and banana notes with very light bubblegum in the finish. A refreshing Hefe and much easier to drink. Does the job.

(can) clear, very dark brown colour with a small brown head; aroma of roast, hint of jam; balanced flavour with a long, medium bitter finish

Can: Poured a clear bright yellow color ale with a medium size white foamy head with light retention and almost no lacing. Aroma of sweet wheat malt notes with light cloves ester. Taste is a mix of sweet wheat malt notes with some cloves and more residual sugar notes than I was expecting. Body is about average with medium carbonation. Not bad but lacking some attenuation.

Can from the LCBO. Cloudy pale orange amber under a fluffy lingering white head. Nose has some light malts but mostly grass and citrus with some tropical fruit and some minerals. Light malt sweetness with a medium- herbal hop bitterness. Mouth is medium- with average carbonation and a lingering chewy bitter finish. Interesting. 7-/4/7/4-/13

473 ml can from a LCBO in Ottawa. Real black in the glass, with a more than one finger frothy pale beige head. Hopy with some licorice and cat pee (sry ...) on the nose. Taste is crisp hopy, licorice, dark malty, hopy bitterness, later adding some citrus elements. Really nice.

Pours a hazy golden-amber colour with a big warm cap, good retention and thick foamy lace. Fresh fruity aromas of citrus, grass and pine with nice balancing yeast. The taste is piney with some nice sharp bitterness. Not really that dry though. Slightly oily, nicely fruity overall. A nice Alpha hop bomb!

(can) clear, bright, very dark brown colour with a small brown head; light aroma of roast, then milk chocolate; starts sweet and develops into a long, light bitter finish
