Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 3 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 5
Smells of heavy cough syrup, just all medicinal like someone dropped a Hall's into my beer. No foam on the body, cloudy dark yellow liquid. Flavour is heavy ginger overpowering everything else but rather floral in nature. Kind of watery mouthfeel. It's unique, but lacks balance.

On tap at the brewpub. Has a soft head and clear copper brown body. Aroma is soft sour yeast and lemon. Flavour is yeast on water with a few grain hints. Mouthfeel is very watery and weak, this needs more strength. It's too soft, I wonder if the brewer rushed it.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 5.5
Clear orange body and no noticeable head. Soft peach on the nose. Flavour is oily grapefruit and a bit of a wet and oily finish. In the IPA world this is simply substandard.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6
Muddy brown body with minimal head. Sweet barley on the nose but little else. Flavour is sweet coffee with barley and brownie notes. Adequate but rather simple.

Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
Soft clear copper and no foam. Awkward ginger and armpit aroma that isn't very intense. Flavour is big sharp pale ale stuff and well balances between malt and hop. Dry finish, good oiliness. Not much to look at but it does taste good.
Deanf (9789) reviewed 323 Sourweisse from Faculty Brewing 7 years ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 5.5
Bright cloudy yellow body with just a bit of foamy head. Faint lemon grain aroma. Flavour is indeed sour and weisse, hitting all the boxes, but lacks excitement and a bit of je ne sais quoi. It needs a little more something interesting to make it interesting.
Deanf (9789) reviewed 250 London Fog from Faculty Brewing 7 years ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 5.5
An indeed slight fog on orange with a minimal modest head. Big sweet apricot on the nose but not as fresh as it could be. Flavour is soft apricot but the mouthfeel is weak. Needs more prominence and finesse.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
Soft dough aroma, light yellow body and just a little head. 7 flavour is okay blonde grain with sharp banana hints. Good medium balance. Okay.

Bottle from High Point, Vancouver
Filthy light brown. It smells like a berry candy with mint or eucaliptus, some vanilla; a lot going on, but not necessarily inspiring. Disgusting yeast soup, astringent and dirty; chicory bitterness.
This is very bad example of brewing, not even worth exploring further.

I looked at someone else's glass while on my way to the bathroom, and smelled the dregs of that glass before the server took it away. Smells like it has lactose, with a light fruitiness. On the palate, it's got quite a bit of bitterness, only a light bit of fruit. It's ok, not the most refined product, but there's some elements in here that aren't bad.
