Can: Poured a pale yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma of tropical hops notes with light rustic malt notes is quite pleasant. Taste is a nice mix of tropical hops notes with nice floral undertones and light rustic malt notes with clean cereal notes and faint residual sugar notes. Body is average for style with good carbonation. Solid grisette with nice mix of new world hops and great drinkability.

Poured from 473mL can. Black with beige head. Fairly dry roast malt with touch of chocolate. Decent, unsweet for a milk stout. Very average.

473mL can, pours a deep dark brown with a medium tan head. Aroma brings out lactose, with medium roast, and some earthy notes. Flavour is only slightly sweet, with lactose, a little roast, and earthy notes. Not much sweetness for a milk stout. It's competently brewed.
A deep dark brown quad with a thin lacing brown head. In aroma, sweet fruity caramel malt with loads of dark fruits, maple, bourbon barrel, vanilla and alcohol warmth. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity caramel malt with dark fruits, alcohol warmth, bourbon barrel notes, very nice. On tap at Lupulus.

Lots of allium on the nose, kind of a muddy-ish. Lots of pear, soft body, touch of malt.

473mL can, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is quite yeasty and chalky, with moderate dankness, some vegetal notes, and pithiness. Flavour is full of vegetables, with gentle stone fruit pith, dankness, and lots of vegetal notes. This isn't pleasant at all. Vegetable bomb. Poor.

Tasting at Oakes' Manor
Cloudy blond colour. The aroma is nice (mild fruit and delicate yeast character), but the mouthfeel is chalky, very astringent, yeast mess that overwhelms the fruits, finishing with vegetable bitterness.
