About
Twin Sails Brewing joined Port Moody’s “Brewers Row” late in 2015, opening right next door to Yellow Dog. The name of the brewery refers to its founders, identical twin brothers, as well as the common sight of sailboats that can be seen on the waters of the Burrard Inlet right out front of the brewery. Twin Sails focuses on progressive American IPAs and stouts and have recently implemented a wild barrel program. They are always trying to push the boundaries of what can be done with beer in BC. Quality comes first and foremost, but in the end, it’s just a bunch of guys and girls having way too much fun brewing beer.

Blond colour, clean. Mild aroma. The flavour is grainy, husky, wet bread, with some grassy hops. This is no Tipopils, but still it's enjoyable.

6oz shared with Alex's. Appearance: clear blonde with a white head. Aroma: some weird not really noticeable hops, a bit of raw water, very weak. Taste: crispy, weird dirty fruity-vegie notes. Overall: not good.

6oz shared with Alex's. Appearance: dark brown with a beige head. Aroma: some coffee with lots of chocolate, smells like a candy or cake. Taste: along the same lines, a bit on the artificial side. Overall: ok.

473ml can. Pours an opaque dark brown, almost black with a medium, creamy, long lasting, tan head that leaves thick, soapy curtains of lace. Aroma of roasted malt, cocoa, vanilla and light coffee. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, lactose, rye, milk chocolate, vanilla, earth, oats and faint marshmallow in a dry, bitter coffee finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and average carbonation. Was expecting more, but still ok.

Can from the brewery
Dark brown colour, near black. Chocolate aroma. Good body, it's not too dry; evident chocolate flavour, a bit artificial, chocolate sauce, and late roastiness.
Decent.

2024-07-02, can, almost 2 years old, 8-4-9-4-18=43
Rich and sweet, bourbon, vanilla, dark sugars, warming alcohol; still delicious.
2024-01-25, can, 8-4-8-4-17=41
Sweet, with accents of dark chocolate; the alcohol is very warming; touch of bitter almonds.

The colour is near black, the head dissipates quickly. Aroma of chocolate, chocolate syrup, spirit, late petrol. It's full bodied, sweet; rich dark sugar flavour, some burnt sugar provides balance to the sweetness; the bourbon is strong, but perfectly integrated, almost smoky; hint of ashes, hint of toffee (maybe the maple).
Excellent.
