On tap. Pours a clear amber with little head. Light aromas of bananas and earthy yeast. Flavors of fruity esters, dull dry banana, a bit if bubblegum and a bit of sharp wheat. Define Belgian yeast influence though more like a simple inoffensive low ABV Golden. But hey a Saison can be anything...

Touch of haze. Amber. Thin head. Bit earthy nose with a touch of orange rind on the nose. Not especially complex but a nice citrus fruitiness and a mellow sweet malt that carries just a touch of sugar.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Golden color, just hazy. Lean Pale Ale, with delicate malts, a touch of dry caramel, and moderately resiny hops; balanced, refreshing.
Nice.

Dark color, near black. The aroma is a bit bready, too mild. The mouthfeel is smooth, the flavor is a bit bready and chocolatey, the final is rather weak and watery, not too bad.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a deep dark reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted malt, some dark dried fruits, and earthy notes. Flavour is very laid back, with earthy notes, toasted biscuity notes and a touch of dry cocoa. Earthy, dry finish. Clean and nicely constructed. Solid.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a clear golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out light piney hops and toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is very fresh, with a very nice piney hops character, some citrus and toasted biscuity malt character. Balanced well, with a solid punch. Nicely constructed and easy to drink. Good stuff.
