A murky dark brown IPA with a thin creamy dark mocha head. in aroma, smooth herbal hops with roasted malt with tonnes of ground coffee, herbal notes, OK. In mouth, a smooth roasted malt with grassy and grainy notes, with herbal hops, a bit subdued, OK. On tap at Arrow and Loon, Jan 17, 2012.

Thanks to PaleAleRider for this one (he got at the brewery and shared). Pours a real dark brown colour with no highlights. Small mocha head with average retention and coffee-like lacing. Beautiful coffee aroma with some roasted malts, oatmeal, hints of nuts, molasses and prunes eventually. Wet mouthfeel, not too heavy, so goes down pretty well. Soft roasted malt flavours with notes of coffee, vanilla and very mild dark fruits. Short finish, but a nice smooth bitterness lingers. A pretty easy-drinking, smooth, oatmeal stout.

Thanks to PaleAleRider for this one (he got at the brewery and shared). Pours a hazy golden colour with hardly no head. Some lace appears as the brew goes down. Malty nose with grapefruit (hop) notes and oranges. With time, hints of spices (ginger, nutmeg). Refreshing mouthfeel with a little bitterness creating nice dryness in the finish. Decent cereal grains with the mild hop again (grapefruit). Orange and grain lingers into the aftertaste. Changes into overall citrus. This is a nice different ale. Was expecting it to be pink, but was not. Thought it was a fruit beer, but no. Much more bitter than what the IBU (20) gave out to be, all because the grapefruit zest and pulp was added. Nice !

A pinkish hazed golden ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, a really nice pungent ale with grapefruit pulp and floral catty hops, resinous, very nice. In mouth, a smooth ale with resinous hops, citrus, lighter bodied but a great quaffer. A good surprise. On tap at Arrow and Loon, Dec. 5 2012.

A dark stout with a thin brown head. In aroma, powdery chocolate, musty whith light alcohol. In mouth, a smooth light sweet chocolate, powdery, so-so. Tasted Dec. 15 2012.

From 32 on. growler. Pours a pale golden ale with light haziness and a thin off white head. In aroma, a nice caramel malt with citrusy hops, citrus pulp, very fruity. In mouth, a smooth herbal hops meets fruity caramel malt, a bit light but quaffable.
