Soft sweet oatmeal on the nose, has great beige cream and dark brownish black body. Flavour is smooth and bright oatmeal that's only slightly sweet. The mouthfeel is full but could be slightly fuller. It's still well crafted and very drinkable.

Okay murky yellow body and decent white foam, sweet bright hops on the nose. Flavour is sweet and bright hops. Sharp carbonation. A decent pale ale, good balance.

Soft but quite fruity, low bitterness, but some decent dark malt / dark fruit interplay.

On tap in Steveston. The aroma is soft barley, I can't pick out anything else. Has a nice big nitro foam head and lighter dark black brown body, but the foam doesn't stick around too long for all its nitro goodness. Flavour is good sweet cream and chocolatey barley, nice balance. Good fullness on the mouth. A decent sweet stout.

On tap in Steveston. Aroma is soft sweet lager notes. Has a medium gold yellow body with little foam. Flavour is reasonably bright lager and soft sweet grain. Mouthfeel is full enough. An okay lager, low alcohol, easy saturday afternoon drinking.

On tap in Steveston. The aroma is fruity clean sour notes. Has good white foam and a semi-clear yellow body. Flavour is bright fruity sourness, a little detergenty. Reasonably full on the mouth. This is clean and good though a little too filtered for my sour preferences.

Draught at 12 Kings, Vancouver
Clean blond colour with creamy head. Crisp Pale Ale, dry but with a good body, with strong yeast character; the hop character is strong too, it's piney and a bit floral; very clean.
Good.

Aroma is soft fruits, not too noticeable nor overbearing. Has good soft pinkish brown clear body. Flavour is quiet blueberry mixed with malty ale and not too harsh. Crisp on the mouth. This is kind of nice and not cloying but I think the blueberry could be more prominent, though the subtlety also has its own charm in a world of overbearing beers.

On tap in Steveston. Aroma is good raspberry tempered by a bit of heavy sugary barley. Has muddy dark brown body with minimal head. Flavour is a nice mix of roasted barley and sweet raspberry, with hints of brown sugar thrown in. Mouthfeel is a little sweet and could use more crispness, kind of watery. This is okay, nice fruitiness but the back end of the beer could be more exciting.

Has an okay modest foam and semi-clear muddy dark brown body. Aroma is sweet barley and brown sugar. Flavour is big brown sugar with hints of molasses. Lots of sugar on the mouthfeel. It's okay but a very sweet porter.
