On tap at Four Mile, pours a hazy copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out loads of butterscotch and English bready malt. Flavour is along the same lines: loads of butterscotch (not quite diacetyl) and bready English malt. Decent enough, but not a skilled beer. Not too interesting.

On tap at Four Mile, pours a clear dark copper with a small beige head. Aroma brings out dry bready English malt and light toasted caramel. Flavour is along the same lines, with a good balance of toasted bready malt and dry caramel notes. Fairly robust in flavour but with a light body. Decent.

On tap at Four Mile, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out somewhat stale biscuity malt, not a whole lot else. Flavour is less stale, with biscuity malt, and some light cereal notes. Clean enough, but not exciting at all. Meh.

Draft - Lighttangerine and malts. Clear gold with a decent off white head. Tangerine and pale malts. Not as artificial and sweet as expected.

On tap at VCBW Festival 2016, pours a cloudy orange amber it's a medium off-white head. Aroma brings out a lot of grapefruit notes and citrus hops. Flavour is extremely grapefruity with a pretty high ascorbic astringency. Don't really get any cactus, just heaps of grapefruit pithiness. Meh.

On tap at VCBW Festival 2016, pours a hazy copper with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out piney hops and diacetyl. Flavour brings out lots of diacetyl, light pine, and biscuity malt. Too much of an infection here to be good, though not disastrous. Meh.

On tap at VCBW Festival 2016, pours a hazy dark reddish brown with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out toasted malt and a slight vegetal quality. Flavour is pretty much the same, with toasted malt and an off-putting vegetal, herbal quality. Pretty shit brown ale.

On tap at VCBW Festival 2016, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma reveals a lot of ascorbic citrus astringency and not much else. Flavour is along the same lines, bringing out lots of citrus notes and a light vegetal quality. Pretty lame stuff. Not even clean or drinkable.

650mL bottle, pours a murky orangey brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out notes of sweet potato, candied sugar and nutmeg and cinnamon. Flavour is quite sweet, with notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, sweet potato and residual sugar. Surprisingly nicely balanced, with a very pleasant sweetness.

Light peat smoke and decent body. Pours dark hazy brown with ok head. Light tangy finish. Not bad, especially for style. Tap at brewpub.
