Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Hazy blond color with generous head. Delicate Lager, the malts are crisp, crackery, a bit bready, the hops have a mild resiny and herbaceous character, the profile is similar to a Helles, plus a mild spicy touch from the rye; it seems sweeter than the average Lager/Helles. Pleasant.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of straw, a touch of corn and crackery malt. Flavour is similar, with notes of corn, straw and toasted malt. Dry and clean, with good drinkability, but not very interesting. Meh.

On tap at 12 Kings, pours a hazy golden amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out tons of butter - uh oh. Flavour confirms this, with juicy citrus, chewy caramel, and butter. Not an intense infection, but it throws it off a bit. Not sure why they call this is a double IPA at this gravity. Okay.

Draft - Sweet malty almost molasses notes. Deep dark brown with a devcent white head. Sweet, salty and a very odd sweetness that is in the finish. Very odd.

Draught at 12 Kings, Vancouver; 4% ABV
Dark brown color. I get a little smell from the aroma, not much more. Very salty, no beer flavor, oily mouthfeel, and I guess that the rest of the shit is Vegemite.
I wish that a zit will grow on the butt cheek of the guy who conceived this abomination.
Undrinkable.

On tap at 12 Kings, pours a deep dark brown with a reddish tinge and a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of salty earthy notes from the Vegemite - can't really say anything positive about the nose. Flavour is along the same lines, with a ton of salty briney notes that are immediately off-putting. I can imagine one might like this if they like Vegemite / marmite, but I'm not included in that bizarre category.

Can - Light citrus and a touch of sweetness. Clearish gold with a frothy small white head. Light citrus and sweet pale malts with a touch of rind in the finish. Not bad for a blond.
