A very different and understated take on the Road Trip series. A well-laced white head on a visibly effervescent orange-amber body. The nose tips off the taste profile - tropical fruit and a touch of honey. The tropical blend includes peach, mango and melon with a touch of grapefruit pulp. Notes of grain and honey help the blend. Tasty.

Great balance and fresh hop melange like its big brothers. Grapefruit, mango, melon, orange and lemon are all there. A touch of spice and pepper, and sweet malt. Super carbonation helps keep it refreshing. medium body and slightly slick mouth feel.

Simply underwhelming for a Tripel. The taste has no strength or range of tastes. The body is a bit thin and the overall taste experience fades quickly

A less than inspired version of a beer that I have difficulty getting excited about. Sweet malt is not balanced by other well defined taste. Hops and spices are hard to find. Underwhelming.

An active white head on a thin straw body. A mild nose has elements of lemon juice and spice. Very refreshing, clean and tart Berliner weisse. Lemons, cereal, green apples and a solid touch of sourness. Tart and clean finish.

a soft low white head on an unfilter-looking butterscotch brown body. The nose is a delicious blend of toffee, malt, dark berries and a hint of booze. The taste profile has everything you could want in a scotch ale - lead tastes of toffee and butter with ripe dark berries, roasted malt and a solid touch of citrus hops, which is often missing from Scotch Ales. A medium to dense body and a silky mouth feel add to the taste experience. Superior!

A straw coloured body topped by a fluffy pure white head with solid lacing. The nose is punchy and fresh with sweet malt, tropical fruit and pine elements. Another great IPA from Gainsbourg. Solid bite to the grapefruit, pine and tropical fruit. Juicy and lush, the citrus, melon and mango mix well with a touch of honey and pine. Funkiness, maybe from the yeast, add an unusual IPA twist. Really tasty.

A sizable fluffy white head with sustained lacing on a lemon/straw body. The nose punches above its weight, featuring big fruity hops - grapefruit rind, orange and lemon - along with grassiness and some spice. A very fresh, popping hop presence leads the way in the taste profile. Grapefruit, orange, lemon, kiwi fruit and grass with a nice underlay of pine resin. A beautiful combo. High moderate carbonation and chewy sweet malt add to a great taste experience.

A dense and fluffy off-white head on a soft amber body. The nose is fresh and powerful, featuring resinous hops, citrus and grapefruit. This is a great example of bitter, hoppy, but well balanced west coast DIPA. The taste profile pops with big fresh bitter hops. Pine resin, grapefruit rind, and astringent hops are blended with a sub theme of floral varieties. Soft, sweet, slightly caramel malt blend nicely with the hop offensive. A touch of pepper and a clean finish top off a well brewed double.

In mouth, a nice sweet fruity biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light tropical fruits, very nice and smooth. On tap at brewery.
