Bouteille 650ml, courtoisie de Jean-Marc G. De couleur noire et opaque. Nez de malt rôti doux (légèrement brûlé), de chocolat au lait sucré (notes lactiques d’avoine), de chocolat noir, léger de café moka et de crème ainsi que des notes de caramel toffee, de vanille et de houblon herbeux. Plutôt mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-bas et une texture crémeuse et aux notes huileuses et aqueuses. Goût lactique de chocolat au lait sucré, de crème (avoine) et de petites notes de malt fumé lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute rapidement un goût moyennement amer de malt rôti doux avec des notes brûlées accompagné de notes de chocolat noir et de caramel toffee puis en finale l’on retrouve un moyen goût de café accompagné d’un léger goût de houblon herbeux ainsi que des notes de noix asséchantes. Post-goût moyen-long, moyennement amer de rôti/ brûlé, de chocolat au lait, léger de café de houblon herbeux ainsi que des notes de noix.

Hazy straw colour with abundant tiny bubbles and thick, plateauing head. Hoppy nose (grass, calamansi) with peppery alcohol/dusty Belgian yeast notes and sweet, seabreezy malts. On the palate, however, it’s kind of dullish, especially the malts, which plod along like undercooked Wonderbread. The hops, too, lack zip, losing the citrus and leaving just a little bit of spiciness. Yeast is still too much of a factor here, muddling the rest of the components in ways not suitable for a pilsner. The finish is getting towards wateriness, accented only by the dull malts. I won’t go so far as to call it cultus, but it’s not skookum either.

comes in what is pretty much the most metal bottle ever conceived. + points for that. Beer is dark as night and the head is as brown as Bigfoot’s fur. The delightful head leaves us a little bit too soon though. Smells roasted coffee like and all. There is a taste of coffee in the beer with a little alcohol tinge somewhere around there. It isn’t full bodied, but it feels like something is going on...

Hazy gold, small lasting white head.Light fruity nose and taste. Somewhat watery, and either the wrong type of, or not enough hops. The worst effort so far from this brewer.

650 bottle from BC Liquor store, Vancouver. I carried these bottles through Seattle to Portland and I think this was the last one. Black beer with tan lasting head. Very dry stout. Bit empty in mouth. Some charcoal. OK if not exciting

Bottle from BC Liquor store. Chestnut with lasting beige head. Very fruity aroma, toffee is weird in the mouth. Medium hop, some candy sugar. Toffee hop finish. Not great.

Bottle from BC Liquore store. Gold with thin white head. Some bleached citrus aroma. Over carbonated. Some ok citrus fruits, bit of tangerine, some pale malt. Bleach is nasty.

Bottled. Hazy golden with small creamy head. Lychee aroma. Dryish with firm body and clen mouthfeel. Lingering very bitter finish . This beer is all about the aromatic hops - I find it great!
