Can at Brother’s Beer Bistro. Pours a hazy golden-amber colour with a light beige creamy head, good retention and decent lace. Caramel malt aromas with fruity notes and some grainy cereals. The spruce shows up in the taste, but lightly with nice grain, caramel and hops. Interesting pale ale blended with spruce notes.

Pours a clean light-golden colour with a small warm cap, a little retention and minimal lacing. Grainy cereal malts at first pour with the caramel sweet malt showing a lot with time. Even the butter notes of diacetyl. The taste is not as sweet, malty still, but with the hops balancing things. Cereal and grass mildly lingers. Decent dryness. An easy-going, flagship blonde ale. I prefer the Kichesippi version for an Ottawa micro of this style. Better grains overall.

Can - Sweet cocoa and toffee. Deep brown. Dark woody burnt sugars and sweetness. What a mess.
