Laced, off-white head on a red/amber body. An understated nose with biscuit malt, carmel and a touch of citrus. Roasted biscuit malt and caramel are front and centre in the taste profile. A touch of butter and berries underpin the malt. Nice depth to the taste, a touch of sticky sweetness and a rich dense body for a 5%er - something Pit Caribou has done before with low booze beers.

I never give 4% abv beers this kind of rating. Ever. A real piece of beer craft. The nose features an initial touch of smoke, fresh cut wood, malt and some dark berries. Visually it is a star - a full light tan head with long term lacing on a dark brown body verging on black. The taste is beautifully blended with some spice such as lavender and nutmeg, dark rich berries, wood, rich malt and a slight honey sweetness. A stunner.

A beautiful summer beer. The nose features spice, banana and a touch of sweet malt. Refreshing and well balanced, citrus fruit mix well with nutmeg and coriander, some banana, wheat and sweet malt. significant, fine effervescence adds to the light touch on this Blanche.

Pit Caribou strikes again. A wonderfully crafted east coast IPA. Astringent citrus and citrus rind hops and sweet malt on the nose. Deep, striking, and fresh hop bite from the Chinook hops leads the taste profile. Rich caramel malt and apricots underpin the hop lead. Nice richness and appropriate effervescence polish a great double.

Just when you think you have tasted it all in craft beer, you will always be proven wrong. The nose poses some of the conundrums to come in the taste - Berries, sourness, smoke and green grapes. What? The porter attributes come out more in the taste with coffee and cocao there but playing second fiddle to the sourness, red wine taste and acidity, chalk and dark berries. Solid hint of ripe cherries too. Balanced and intriguing.

A fluffy, well lace white head on an appealing orange/amber body. Nose features fresh but understated citrus fruit and caramel malt. A really nice East coast IPA. Fresh grapefruit rind, pine, citrus fruit, caramel, sweet malt and a touch of pepper. A bit bitter taste balanced by solid malt and plus carbonation. Another Pit Caribou quality offering.

A powerhouse pale ale. The nose is explosive hops - both earthy and grapefruit - with a touch of pepper. It has a hazy off-orange colour and a fluffy with head with significant lacing. This is incredibly hoppy for a pale ale. Juicy citrus hops blend with kiwi and other tropical tastes; exactly the taste you would hope for with Citra, Simcoe and Galaxy hops. It is slightly spicy and peppery underneath. Pit Caribou is a rising star in Quebec brewing.

Taking Brown Ales to a new place! The nose is powerful, featuring a touch of booze, roasted malt and hoppiness. An amazing rich and complex taste profile -- Deep roasted caramel malt, dark chocolate, a heavy undercurrent of hops with hints of dark berries and roasted almonds. And all well blended and smooth. Way beyond your standard Brown Ale!

A very interesting creation with apparent craftsmanship. The head is quite fizzy and disappears quickly. The nose features coffee first with a hint of sourness. The taste profile leads with a refreshing sourness supported by coffee which grows from an initial bitterness to a richer, creamier flavour as the taste settles in. Hints of roasted nuts and ripe cherries help build complexity. The beer stays in balance to the end and is nicely supported by a strong effervescence. What will they think of next?

One-year-old bottle. Nose is of biscuity malt with a roasty edge, smokiness, and a touch of floral hops. A very frothy off-white head. The taste is relatively subtle, featuring the same biscuity malt, caramel, vegetables and English-style and floral hops. A skillfully understated smoke element is well integrated. A very soft mouth feel is accentuated by a healthy carbonation. Alcohol is well concealed. Good balance with a slight bitter edge emerging in the aftertaste.
