Sapperton - Sour Red Lager from Steel & Oak Brewing
11 years ago
5.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out toasted bready malt and German lager yeast - not getting any hint of sourness on the nose. Flavour is pretty similar - lots of bready malt, lager yeast and an ever so slight hint of tartness, but not really what I'd label as sour. Boring but clean. Okay.

Sapperton - Sour Red Lager from Steel & Oak Brewing
11 years ago
6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 6
Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Cloudy light amber color with creamy head. The aroma is delicate and original; there is some dust, light fruits, perfumy talc. The mild sourness blends in well, but the base beer seems to be needing something more, better flavor. It’s smooth, it has ordinary bitterness. Some chalky astringency in the final.
Not a bad beer, not a beer I’m looking forward to drink again, not adding much to the personal experience.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Dark brown color, compact head. Aroma and flavor play too much with the roastiness, hiding the caramel notes, and getting into a dusty/ashy final.
Not saying is bad. But this is not an Altbier. Not a beer I would drink again either.
