First time at Pressed Cafe. Pours a dark brown colour with cola highlights, a bubbly beige head, average retention and good dirty-bubbly lacing. Roasted malt aromas with hints of coffee and chocolate. Flavours of roasted malts as well, with a real nice dry finish. A nice regular stout with a very dry end and lingering bitterness from the hops.

Dark brown colour, clean, caramel-ruby highlights, a thin light-beige head, mild retention and spotty lacing. Dark fruit aromas with roasted malts, hints of coffee and a sour undertones (infected??). Taste of fruitiness as well as grape notes, which is kind of the sour notes felt in the nose. Roasted malt stays on the tongue with a touch of tart. The mouthfeel has a decent dryness. The roasted malts and hops are nicely balanced in here. Not sure about being a Bock, and if the grapes are suppose to be in here.

Second beer from Beau's Febrewary 2019. This one had to walk to Atomic Rooster in the big snow storm to get it. Clean, light-golden colour with a small white cap and decent dirty lacing. Mild rusty water aromas with even lighter malts. That taste has a little more bite for a pilsner, with some decent spicy hops in the finish. The malts are still an undertone in here. The mouthfeel is on the dry side with decent crispiness. A decent Pilsner that wins in the mouth with its spiciness.

First brew from Beau's Febrewary 2019 at Pints & Quarts. Hazy, deep amber colour with a beige head on the creamy side, just as the lacing is after a good retention. Beautiful spices in the nose, reminding me of well-blended ginger and cinnamon. The taste shows these spicy notes as well. A little stronger, but still well-balanced. This is where the sage starts showing a slight more with the leafy notes. The mouthfeel is nicely dry with almost a mintiness that is refreshing. I love sage, so you got me in the one. I love stuffing, and sage is the master. I love that Beau's has balls to do a beer with this. Great spiciness to warm us up on this big snow storm that is upon us.

Draught at EBF: pours clear light amber with white head. Aroma is caramel, some hops, sorrel maybe. Taste is herbal and the sorrel really comes out. Ginger ale and sour.

Bottle: Poured a hazy yellow/beige color ale with a large off-white foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of floral hops undertones with some strong tart notes is enjoyable. Taste is also a nice mix of floral hops undertones with some strong tart notes and a dry oaky finish. Body is fuller then average with good carbonation. Super enjoyable hoppy tart beer.

Bottle that pours a pretty black colour with a creamy-bubbly mocha-coloured head, great retention and creamy lacing. Dark malt aromas with the roastiness and bitter chocolate notes. Hints of herbal hops, liquorice and nuttiness. The taste is mostly roasted malts with light hops in the finish. A decently dry finish. Molasses and dark fruits flavours as well. Not really feeling the organic maple syrup, maybe because it was packaged close to 6 months ago. Not much sweetness, and that is fine. Still, a good robust porter.

Bottle that pours a clear rich golden colour with very light amber hue. The head is off-white, frothy, foamy, long lasting with some chunky foam lacing. Aromas of cereal grains with some sweet malt hints, fruitiness and mild hops. The mouthfeel has a nice dry, bitter-enough finish. Not sweet at all in the taste, with the cereal notes really shining before the hop mild take-over. All-in-all, a very well-balanced German-style lager.
