1.2/10 Appearance 2 Aroma 1 Flavor 1 Texture 2 Overall 1
On tap at the brewery. Murky orange brown body with little foam. No aroma to speak of - and this is what I'm talking about. You say you made a lemon meringue IPA and it smells like nothing!? Give me a break. Flavour is - just bad. There is lemon there but it's weak and some vague grain hints drive past. No sweetness, no meringue, nothing. Medium finish I suppose. This isn't just bad, it's straight up false advertising.

On tap. Murky yellow orange. Floral hop oil on the nose. Flavour is a bit of rotting orange, some hop, some sour hop. Medium to dry finish. Okay, drinkable, but firmly middling in the Vancouver scene.

Black colour. The most boring stout in town, dry, with some acidity that feels more like an infection rather than fruit; metallic finish. It was supposed to be a beer, it's a cola.
This is bad.

Draught at the brewery
Golden colour, clean. Light aroma of sugars, cleaning product. Lean mouthfeel, rather dry; the Brut fermentation went sideways and produced a very weird result with nasty chemicals. No reason to talk about malt and hops, this is undrinkable.

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy light amber colour. It smells like a citrus candy. It tastes sweet and fruity like a citrus candy, lactose, short and artificial finish.
The shark is way behind.

Draught at the brewery
Dark amber colour. That earthy caramel smell of a Brown Ale, some dark caramel and burnt sugar flavour, with a metallic finish.
Not the Brown Ale that will convince you about the style. Ok beer, boring. Clean.

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy pale blond colour. Nice aroma, lemon and lactic acid, fresh. Soft mouthfeel (I believe it may work better if drier), light malt base, light acidity, mild citrus character, low bitterness.
Refreshing.

Bright amber/brown with a thin head. Looks really appetizing, actually. Caramel, and probably a whiff of bubblegum, unfortunately. Tastes strong than it is. Some light caramel malt notes, a vague toasty bitterness, and again some unwanted phenols.

Brassy and bright. No head. Very sweet and phenolic. Whatever Brut IPA is, it's not flat, sweet and sticky. A total miss - call this a random Belgian strong and I would think it a weak example. Call it a Brut IPA and I know it was a failure and you're still charging people money for it. Please don't do that.

Medium-brown and not much head. Toasty brown ale-ish nose. Thin, phenolic and weird. Nonsensical tartness, maybe a whiff of fruit? A mess, and a miss.
