On tap at Trans Canada, pours a hazy dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted malt and crusty bready notes. Flavour is very light, with gentle bready malt, a touch of sweetness. Weak and watery. Nothing special.

On tap at Trans Canada, pours a clear orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out resinous hops and candied caramel malt. Flavour is quite sweet, being over-malted and under-hopped: lots of caramel malt, deficient on the resinous hops. It's okay, but not what I want in an IPA.

On tap at Trans Canada, pours a clear dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out dry bready malt and a hint of caramel. Flavour is along the same lines, with bready malt, a touch of caramel and very light resins. Underhopped and very watery. Not thrilling.

On tap at Trans Canada, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out light, semi-artificial blueberries upfront, with little else. Flavour is along the same lines, with weak blueberries and litre else. Watery but it's drinkable.

On tap at Trans Canada, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is full of crunchy vegetables, herbal notes, and grass. Flavour is along the same lines, with crunchy herbal notes, some grass, and biscuity malt. Not dialed in overly well. It's alright.

Smells of floor cleaner and feet. Okay semi clear copper and a bit of white foam. Flavour is big oily hops with a bare hit of sweet malt. Rather overbearing for what it is.

Nice clear red body, okay sofy beige foam. Very soft weak sugar on the nose, kind of bad. Flavour is weak sugary nothingness. Fu enough on the mouth I suppose. It's missing a reason to drink it.

Medium copper brown clear body, soft white foam. Has a sweet blueberry aroma and lots of chewy malts to balance it out. Flavour is sweet blueberry with a malty kick on the back end. Medium finish, not too heavy. A little on the sweet and fake side but it works.

Medium gold body, a little head. Minor white foam on top. Flavour is vague hops with a hint of cardboard. Standard boring craft pilsner.

Draft - Citrus and some pine. Clear copper gold with a decent white head. Just as it smells. Old school, but solid.
