On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma is dry and plain, with not a whole lot to speak of. Flavour is crisp and dry, with notes of straw, crisp biscuity malt and a touch of bitter hops. Nothing interesting but it's clean and drinkable.

Deep gold, white head.Musty piney tropical hop nose.Similar palate but omething seems a bit "off". Prickly carbonation, long lasting musty grapefuit hop bitterness

This is sweet. Pale, bit hazy, thin head. A light orangey note but for me this needs a bit more bitterness to get it across the finish line.

Sweeter malty character and low bitterness. That malt sweetness is assertive but honestly not so bad. Just could do with a touch more dryness in the finish.

Dark brown with mocha head. Lots of roast on the nose. Similar palate. Full body with coffee and cocoa...not much nuance to it...no oyster character but "shells" wouldn’t give you that anyway. Good everyday stout.

On tap. Pours a clear amber with a small, short lived, off-white head that dissipates to an outer ring, leaving spotty lacing. Mild aroma of pale malt, floral, grass, pine and light caramel. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, biscuit, citrus, floral and pine with a dry, mildly bitter grass finish. Light body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. A little under whelming.

Christ, another greater Vancouver brewery. When will the Great Brewery Wars go down? Are there enough beer geeks to seriously keep like a dozen breweries going? We also got the whisky dudes, the wine snobs and the vodka ’bros along with all the non-drinking brethren so I quite frankly debate whether all of these folks can last a decade..... and I was born here and ain’t ever heard of no Dunlevy Street. Oh, Gastown area, I gets it. Well anyways this pours with an antique white head, orange body, lots of carbonation, satisfying malt and hop combination on the nose that indicates finesse and skill but nothing more... nothing world class, just adequate and certainly good, but not that "oh-my-god-I-must-buy-a-plane-ticket-good" sort of thing that ratebeerians look for; ooh, a decent flavour. Lots of malt with a hop finish, crisp but muddled, seems a bit of that west coast dampness going on, balanced but oyster-like like I should pull out my toque and wear it with pride. Medium finish, not as crisp as I would like. A good IPA but gets lost in its own details so much that I can’t say I would remember it, nor recommend it, to those eager beer drinkers on all corners of the planet just waiting for the right moment to buy a ticket and taste it for themselves. For those local to Vancouver, worth a spin for sure; but for the rest of you get thee to Belgium while you wait for the "big thing" from the west coast; I hope I’ll be aware when it arrives.

Bottle. Black pour. Aroma of chocolate, creamy mocha, roasted malt and coffee. Taste of sweet creamy mocha coffee, mild vanilla, milk chocolate and some caramelised roasted malt. Tasty.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out medium roasted malt upfront with very minor oyster presence which imparts a slight briny quality. Flavour is along the same lines, with medium roasted malt dominating. Even slighter oyster presence. Simple but pleasant basic stout.
