Cloudy and with a thin head. Aroma is a touch plasticy and with a touch fruity and a splash of orchard fruits. Sweet front, sticky, alcohol next then pear, subtle pineapples and a dash of peach. Not bad but stronger and sweeter than I prefer.

Bottle, government store. Hazy and somewhat dull. Aroma is a bit phenolic, gluey. Sweet, again a bit phenolic, plasticy, especially in the finish. A bit of biscuity malt character, and a touch of floral hop. But kind of the usual poor Belgian-yeast experiment.

Golden color, clean, with compact head. Mellow Blonde Ale, rather sweet, with light Belgian yeast flavor, light fruity esters, but also some vegetables, more evident in the aroma. Correct bitterness.
Not bad, but fairly easy brewed.

On cask at Yaletown, pours a clear golden with a large white head. Aroma is full of citrus, lemon zest and piney hops. Flavour is oddly citric, with lime, zest and vegetal notes. Too vegetally. Not too good, but not a disaster.

Good head, okay copper-black body with no carbonation but not pitch black as a porter really should be. The aroma is heavy on the roasted barley with a hint of nuttiness and roasted open fire but otherwise not particularily fantastic. Flavour is strong chocolate-y notes with a hint of barley and wood and a sugary molasses finish. This beer is okay for its style and what it does, but you won’t remember it in a day let alone a week. A very middling stout.

Bottle, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted malt, a touch of roast and dry crackery malt. Flavour brings out lots of toasted malt, bready notes and light crackery notes. Very light on the palate, with a dry finish. Not the most enjoyable porter, but it's acceptable.

Black color with beige head. Strong espresso character, plenty of boutique coffee traits, with a dry mouthfeel, and some light acidity in the final that tickles the tongue for a pleasant feeling.
Very nice Stout.
