Draught @ YVR. I probably haven’t had this in 20’years. Bright, amber-brown. Nutty aroma, with a hint of caramel. On the palate, nutty, light toffee notes. Fairly clean. Not bad. All the changes in ownership of the brand and it seems like the beer itself hasn’t changed at all. A BC classic even I forgot about.

On tap. Pours a clear copper-amber with a medium, creamy, long lasting, ecru head that laces nicely. Sweet aroma of grainy pale malt, indistinct tropical fruit, orange peel and pine. Sweet flavour of biscuit malt, caramel, orange peel, pineapple and pine resin with a dry, bitter hop finish. Light body with a thin texture and average carbonation. Ok.

On tap. Pours a hazy orange-amber with a large, creamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves curtains of lace. Sweet fruity aroma of wheat malt, apricot, floral and a faint earthy spice. Sweet fruity flavour of wheat malt, thick apricot puree, floral hops, coriander and subtle yeast in a crisp, dry finish. Light body with a thick texture and soft carbonation. Not normally a fan of fruit beers, but this was definitely this best apricot beer I've tried. Refreshing and easy drinking.

On tap. Pours a clear dark brown-amber with a medium, creamy, long lasting, tan head that leaves curtains of lace. Mild aroma of caramel malt, nuts, dark chocolate, ash and earthy hops. Semi-sweet flavour of roasted malt, caramel, dark chocolate, raisin, nuts and earth with a dry, mild, bitter coffee finish. Light body with a thin, watery texture and soft carbonation. Boring.

From the tap at Tap & Barrell, Vancouver, Canada. Pours intense gold with slightly irregular white foam. Aroma is cereal and honey. Body is tendentially light, with excessive carbonation (bad drafting?). Taste is a combination of moderate sweetness and bitterness. Finish is average.

650ml bottle at Brian's office. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a weak white head. This one is meh, not very offensive.
