Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Hazy blond color. American Saison, a bit drier than the average, quite spicy, but also with a presence of vegetables.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma is clean, with crackery malt, some Belgian yeast, and floral notes. Flavour is clean but fairly bland, with light Belgian yeast and floral crackery malt. Dry and drinkable. Thirst-quenching but fairly boring.

@Backeddy Pub, Egmont. Purple colour, really pretty. Aroma is fairly malty, the fruit showing more on the palate, especially with juiciness late. Refreshing late summer ale.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a hazy dark orange amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney and citrusy hops, with an English hop quality, and a zesty malt base. Flavour brings out lots of piney hops, with secondary notes of citrus and dry crackery malt. Nice and piney. Finishes piney and slightly astringent. Much better than the average ratings suggest.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a cloudy pale yellow white head. Aroma is very Belgian-esque, with lots of farmhouse yeast, some fuzzy citrus skins and even a little hops. Flavour reveals notes of farmhouse yeast, banana and clove, with a citrus hop finish. Decently balanced, just not really brewed to style. Not bad, but not great either.

Hazy amber color. Nice malt aroma, with a whiskey scent. Slick mouthfeel, some caramel, candy, correct bitterness, light fruity esters.
Ok Amber Ale.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Cloudy deep blond color. Aroma of vegetables and paper. Dry mouthfeel, flavor of paper, vegetables, light coriander, and the bitterness has chicory tones.
Not good.

On tap at the Bitter Tasting Room, pours a golden amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out dry crisp hops and biscuity malt. Flavour is well-balanced between a lightly sweet biscuity malt and a floral hop quality. Standard pale ale - nothing special.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Beautiful mahogany color, clean, with creamy head. Caramel aroma with a hint of alcohol. Good body strength, with quite round mouthfeel; the flavor is mostly based on dark caramel, with plenty of esters, some banana, and roasted nuts in the final; strong bitterness, with a woody trace in the end.
Good and bold; too much esters for being a real Belgian, and too clean; it tastes like a Doppelbock and Quad crossover.

Brown body with a light brown head. Aroma is fairly chocolatey, with a little bit of fudgey character. Full body, roasty and rich chocolate character. Good hop bitterness is actually quite overt.
