Beer sampling at beerbistro in Toronto on saturday night. Its a dark IPA with light hoppiness and some grass and citrus flavor. Some alcohol is present and this is allright by me.

(tap) clear light yellow with small white head; faint aromas of bread and fruit; clean light taste, no noticeable alcohol - almost like a soda or a juice but not sweet; very refreshing on a hot summer day

(tap) very dark brown with small tan head; aroma of coffee, simple but balanced flavour, not impressive

(tap) clear amber colour with small whitish head; aroma starts with caramel then more sweet and funky notes; balanced flavour, not bad but not much real Trappist character

(tap) clear amber, medium cream head; faint citrus aroma; balanced flavour; not bad but this is no imperial/double IPA - less IPA character than good regular IPAs

(tap) clear light yellow with medium white head; aroma - very faint apply, then papaya, clean taste bit skewed towards bitter with long strong bitter finish. Not bad - but too bitter for pilsner - it is leaning towards IPA

(tap) clear very pale yellow with tall white head; aroma starts with citrus, then a bit funky; clean, balanced, refreshing taste - more like wheat than lager

Bottle: Poured a clear medium brown color ale with a light foamy head with average retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of dry caramel malt with light bitter hoppy notes also noticeable. Taste is also dominated by some light caramel malt notes with a very subtle bitter hoppy finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. This is closer to an APA then an IPA and would benefit from having additional hops.
