Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Dark mahogany color with creamy head. The roasted malt aroma is a bit dusty. Smooth, not too dry; the body is weak; some roasted malt flavor, and light buttery feeling; correct bitterness; a bit dusty in the end. The final is lightly nutty.
Imprecise.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Blond color, hazy, with small head. The aroma is very light, but with a nice citrusy touch. Dry mouthfeel; hint of cereals flavor; correct bitterness, with light tea and bergamot impression. Very light astringency in the final.
Clean but weak.

(Draught at Little Delirium Café, Brussels, 26 Oct 2013) Reddish brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty nose with notes of dark bread, dark fruit, cherries and a touch of oak wood. Malty, fruity taste with dark bread, dark fruit and a touch of oak wood. Medium body, with a balanced sweetness. A bit strange, with fairly short flavours. Quite enjoyable though.

Actually a noble effort for a gluten-free beer because they manage to nail the hops flavour here. It’s just the absence of malt that throws this off. Maybe if they added even more hops to disguise it. Had a sip of this at Get Well.

Bouteille 500ml. Couleur acajou foncée, mousse blanc cassé. Arôme de caramel, céréales. Goût d’alcool, caramel brûlé, arrière-goût bizarre. Carbonation moyenne, corps moyen.

Draft @ Little Delirium. Couleur cuivrée, col blanc cassé. Arôme offre une palette maltée assez singulière qui donne des effluves entre le grillé, caramel et chocolaté - pâle, le tout restant assez modeste. Palais est léger axé sur les malts, ici je note un profil presque moka, chocolaté voire anisé - réglisse. Garde encore un caractère unique de grains - fruité noir ponctué par cette signature typique de cette brasserie. L’amertume reste pas mal en retrait et ne contribue que peu à l’ajout d’un certain profil houblonné.

Draft @ Delirium. Cuivrée, col épais beige collant au verre, bulles type champenoises. Arôme est malté assez moyen, houblon subtile offre qcq effluves citronnées - pamplemousse. Palais reste focalisé sur les grains avec un retrait herbacé. Le profile reste assez unique, peut être du au manque de gluten. Note levure en rétro avec qcq pointe de houblons. Le tout reste centré sur des malts type caramel - pâle qui me rappelle une base scotch. Un ajout modéré du houblon qui peine à vraiment percer. Possible levure donnant une fin de bouche rappelant un nettoyant industriel sans pour cela nuire à la bière. Reste sympa, mais juste ce petit qcq chose auquel je n’accroche pas.
