Hazy light golden-yellow colour with a big frothy, almost creamy white head that goes down slowly and thick patchy-foamy lace is left. Grassy and pine hop aromas but they to let the fruit come out pretty quickly by fading a little. Citrus and tropical notes, with some grains. The mouthfeel starts wet and builds this pretty good dryness in the aftertaste. Hop flavours with the citrus, grass and pine. The backbone is pretty mild in malts. Decent, but seems like missing a tad of balance... like in the yin and yang.

Vagabond Soleil Levant 5% Yuzu Wheat Beer The name means Rising Sun and it is a sunflower opaque yellow with an attractive Yuzu and wheatvarona with light spice notes (cloves?). It’s medium bodied with a raspy carbonation. Maybe a bit too gassy/carbonic. The flavor is quite well balanced with Yuzu and eggy wheat. The taste is solid and when I see foreign breweries trying to make a “Japanese” type beer I’m usually curious to try it. This one is pretty good, not so special but good. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Can: Poured a light reddish color ale with a large white foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of lightly tart raspberry with some hoppy undertones and residual sugar notes. Taste is a mix of tart raspberry, heavy residual sugar notes with some hoppy tropical notes with a metallic finish. Body is full with good carbonation. Too much conflictual flavours and lacks overall balance.

Can that pours a little hazy, golden colour with just a tad of orange hue. The off-white head is huge, frothy, foamy with great retention and patchy thick foam spots. Apple nose with the Pils malts and spicy Saaz hops. The taste shows the peppery hops and mild cereal grains. Again, hints of apples making this quite a refreshing Pilsner with fruity and spicy notes. I quite like this.

This clementines (mikan) session ipa looks hazy as hell. Vagabond Marrakech Express 4.5% Ultra hazy mikan juice looking golden orange color. The aroma is juicy mikan citrus with some pith and almost julep like sweetness. Fairly full bodied with a raspy carbonation. The first hit is very pithy citrus then some mouth puckering and finally bitterness. Not bad but I’d prefer a smoother body over this aggressively carbonic one. Apparently a collab with Brasserie New Deal in Boucherville as well as brewed with clementines as well as dates with I guess explains it’s hazy turbid look. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
