25/4/2025. Can shared by Colin, cheers. Pours almost clear dark orange amber with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is grainy, piney, citrus, orange, stone fruits. Moderate sweetness, quite bitter. Medium body, oily, average carbonation. Old school. Likeable.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Just a light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Somewhat grainy malts, a little cereal sweetness. Okay citrus hops, a little floral and not the brightest. Jammy citrus and a little peel on the light and semi dry finish. Some modest hop spice indicates this is not that old but it does taste a bit weary.

Clear purple pour, with a tiny white head. Cranberry, pom, and cherry aroma.. Thin, watery mouth feel. Very light, lactic finish, with a candy cherry after taste. It's not even that sour. Meh.

Can from the LCBO. The LCBO strikes again. This tastes OLD. The hops have turned, the beer is sweet, burnt brown sugar notes, sticky malts. Sweet hop notes, light pine. Meh. I bet this was quite nice when it was fresh, but now its stale and old. I'm sure it sat in a warehouse for 4 months for the LCBO to test it. well done!

Black pour, rocky beige head.
Pine hops, light roast. Flavor is more of the same. The pine, resinous hops seem to over power, and the roastiness is weak, and gets pushed aside. Seems like its more of a hoppy american porter. Its lacking the roast i come to expect in this style. Netherworld from flying monkeys is still my go to example of the style.

500ml bottle from the LCBO.
Gorgeous pils pour, bright gold, fluffy white head. Great aroma of saaz, grass, light yeast, and a wonderful grain bill. Medium bitterness, crisp and quenching. Great grassy hop finish, a great pils.

Dark copper pour, small white head. Big earthy aroma, some spruce, and sweet fruits. Flavor was big on molasses and more earthy spruce. Touches of citrus from the spruce and ir ome through with a light fruits from te dates. Quite intereting and complex.

Dark amber pour, small white head. Good malty, cereal aroma. Some of the malt is a little overly sweet. Good mouthfeel, good carb. Light bitterness, good malty finish. Nothing spectacular, but a good session beer i think.

Dark golden pour, small offwhite head. Aroma of citrus, piney hops, and light malts. Juicy flavor, with light bitterness. Nice sweet orange finish, and some light malts.
