As Dubbel Franc Sour, so maybe the same beer but also maybe not. Bright amber, thin head. The aroma…is different. Okay it’s mostly cab franc, and brutish French oak, light esters. It’s tart, lactic with a bit of acetic, but a bit heavy on that front. The grape juice is big, seems like a cover up. Well they took a dubbel and de-dubbeled it so I imagine something was wrong. But since I can’t tell what was wrong I suppose it’s mission accomplished! Not the best beer but it’s okay.

On tap at Kind, pours a clear reddish chestnut brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out booze, some perfume, esters and bubblegum. Flavour is messed up, with perfume, some cleaner notes, booze, and some bubblegum esters. All sorts of things wrong here. Boozy, perfumey, infected with something. Awful.

On tap at Kind, pours a deep dark mahogany, no head. Aroma is very sweet and syrupy, with little beyond syrupy sweetness. Flavour is syrupy and sickly sweet, with nothing at all good about this — there's no real malt expression, no balance, no depth. Just awful.
mcberko (47456) reviewed Eric's Lemon Pepper Saison from Kind Brewing 4 years ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 4.5
On tap at Kind, pours a cloudy golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is somewhat estery, with citrus, light pepper, and rustic notes. Flavour is estery and sweet, with no real farmhouse character, bubblegum and esters. This isn't good at all. Poor utilization of the saison yeast. Barely drinkable.

On tap at Kind, pours a hazy bronze with a small beige head. Aroma is sweet and syrupy, with sweet caramel and subdued resinous hops. Flavour is very sweet and syrupy, with lots of syrupy caramel and way too little hops. Syrupy and sweet. Very bad.

The aroma is good pineapple and hops, has okay enough foam on a cloudy yellow body. Flavour is soft juicy hops, as advertised. Mouthfeel has okay oiliness with a bit of sugar. It's a boring example but a drinkable one.

Has a soft floral caramel aroma, a weak copper liquid with no foam awaits you. Flavour is soft wood and citrus of no distinction. Mouthfeel is a little watery. It's a boring wet mess.
Deanf (9781) reviewed Pina Colada IPA from Kind Brewing 5 years ago
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6
Smells of big cloying coconut, but at least I smell something which isn't always the case with this brewery. Has okay foam on a clear medium copper body. Flavour is actually a good rendition of piña colada, coconut and juiciness but the ipa element seems missing. Mouthfeel is full enough. It's drinkable in an awkward novelty kind of way.
Deanf (9781) reviewed Blackberry Berlinerweizen from Kind Brewing 5 years ago

Very soft blackberry aroma, has good foam on a nice foggy pinkish brown body. Flavour is muddy citrus, maybe blackberry but it's hard to tell. Mouthfeel is full. It's decent enough, lacking character but better than a lot of the other ones I tried here.
Deanf (9781) reviewed Canadian Lager from Kind Brewing 5 years ago

Faint hops aroma, has weak yellow body with no foam. Flavour is soft lager hops and some vague syrup which I can't identify. Mouthfeel is watery. This is bad - a homebrew kit would reveal better results.
