Clean, light golden-yellow colour with a white cap, decent stay and full sticky lacing. Some nice herbal-spicy Pils aromas with a mild sweet malt base. Gets a tad hazy as it pours. The taste shows as well, a little herbal notes, some light spiciness, so surprising for a light 4% ABV, and a bigger brewer - to have a nice Pilsner-like light lager.

Fairly clean, with a tad haze, golden colour with an amber hue, a white cap leaving some decent creamyish lacing streaks. Peach aromas with hints of sourness and saltiness. This continues into the taste with the fruitiness, but quite watery for the rest. Not much sourness, saltiness. Refreshing for those who like peach beer, but nothing more else.

355ml can from one of their mix 12-packs. Just a little hazed, light golden-yellow colour with a white cap, average retention and some decent foamy lacing around the brew. Some funk in the aromas with heavy grassiness, some mild citrus notes and a touch of Witbier yeast. Gets hazier at last pour with a few particles through it. A touch better blended with the citrus and yeast in the flavours, and the grassy hops take a backseat. An interesting blend of Witbier and American IPA - which was not bad drinking from the can, but lacking balance in a glass.
Nw. MTL - BOS. Easy going, smooth and slightly ripeish fruity with hints of malts and earthiness.

Nw. MTL - DAL. Malty, caramely and piney with some resin, earthiness, bitterness and hints of fruitiness. Old skoolish.

Mid-range amber body with a solid, sustained and laced off-white head. Love to see that. Nose has fresh citrus hop notes, some rind, resin and sweet malt. Taste profile is a weighty version of the IPA - Fresh grapefruit, melon and orange rind hops well balanced with sweet caramel malt and other tropical fruit. Rich and dense, with a slightly sticky mouth feel. Cherries and a touch of booze round out a stellar double.

Light straw body with a full, fluffy laced head. Biscuit malt, and sharp, fresh fruity hops make for a solid IPA nose. A superior hop/malt balance. Malt is roasted caramel, with rindy and juicy citrus hops leaning on orange, lemon and melon. Some berries add a layer underneath. Top notch.

Fairly clean (lightly unfiltered with time), amber colour with golden highlights, a big warm-whitish frothy head, good retention and foamy spots of lacing. Big piney aromas with a mild caramel malt base. Loads of spruce in the taste with just a touch of dryness in the finish. Again, some light caramel malts in the background. Quite a nice West Coast IPA with what seems to be a nice spruce beer soda side to it.

Red with a creamy head. Caramel aroma. Berries. Taste is mildly bitter on a watery palate. Mildly bitter, watery finish. Refreshing though.

Pale gold with a frothy, white head. Aroma of straw, minerals and dankness. Faint mango. Taste is mildly bitter on a watery palate. Short, watery finish. Drinkable.
