Nutty flavour dominates. Medium roast. The body, however, is slightly thin lacking a full body mouthfeel to be great. LB Saskatoon

Draft: Poured a clear amber ale with an off-white foamy head. Aroma of maple and smoked malt is enticing enough. Taste is also a mix of light caramel malt with some maple notes with some lingering smokiness. Body is about average with good carbonation. I wouldn’t drink copious amount of this beer but enjoyable nonetheless.

Draft: Poured an amber color ale with a nice off-white foamy head. Aroma of grainy malt notes with dry hops notes is OK. Taste is dominated by some grainy malt bill with some dry hoppy notes with some bitterness noticeable. Body is about average with good carbonation. Something is off with the malt bill and not very close to your typical NEIPA.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver, 6% ABV, "guaranteed freshness" is 28/02/2018 (yesterday); thanks for the smart date format!
Quite cloudy but not murky like other NE IPAs, large frothy head, persistent. Dry mouthfeel with crisp malt, light cereals; resinous hops, for a quite strong bitterness, no juice, some vegetable bitterness in the finish.
West Coast IPA, quite good.

To celebrate the beginning of Spring I decided to combine traditions from Quebec (maple) and Japan (a nearby Shrine). Corsaire Oreille de Crise 6.5% probably the 2017 release so drunk a year after release. I got this on sale at Fromagerie Atwater last winter for 2 bucks. The name means Jesus’s Ear and is a popular fried pork dish (kind of like pork rinds) at sugar shacks. As the label says the aroma is a Smokey bacon evocative of a rauchbier. The taste on the other hand is very much maple syrup and caramel malts added to the smoke. The finish especially brings to mind maple. A really fun beer that recalls spring visits to the Cabane a Sucre (sugar shack where they make maple syrup) in Quebec. I can’t believe this cost me like 250¥ or so, what a steal. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
