Bottle: Poured a bright golden color lager with a medium size foamy head with good retention and some great lacing. Aroma of unrefined cereal with some dry notes. Taste is not as pleasant as I had hoped for with notes of unrefined cereals and stale grain. Body is quite full with good carbonation. Not bad but definitely not the best from this fine brewery.

Bottle: Poured a clear dark brown color ale with a quite large foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of fruity ester with some light toffee malt. Taste is also dominated by light fruity ester with notes of toffee and caramel malt. Body is about average with good carbonation. I thought this one really packed lots of character while maintaining good balance.

Bottle: poured a clear deep copper color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and not much lacing. Aroma of ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg are well balance. Taste is also a well balanced mix between some ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg with not much pumpkin per say abut a nice and easily drinkable caramel malt backbone. Body is about average with good carbonation. Very well done with great balance and easily drinkable.

Bottle: Poured a deep golden color pils with a large foamy head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of lightly sweet floral malt with light dry hops notes. Taste is also a nice mix between some floral malt and light subtle dry European hops. Body is slightly oily with good carbonation. Crispier hops would have improved this beer but very good nonetheless.

Bouteille 500ml, courtoisie de Blankboy. De couleur cuivrée et voilée. Nez malté de grains de céréales, de biscuits, moyen de houblon citrique (pamplemousse), herbeux (herbes fraîches) et aux petites notes résineuses, léger de pain et de fruits (agrumes, notes de mangues), ainsi que des notes de caramel. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture légèrement huileuse et aux notes crémeuses. Goût moyennement amer et asséchant de houblon citrique (pamplemousse) et aux notes résineuses (une amertume présente durant toute la gorgée) accompagné d’un léger-moyen goût fruité (agrumes, traces de mangues et d’abricots) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de biscuits, moyen de pain, léger de céréales et avec des notes de caramel puis en finale s’effectue un regain d’amertume de houblon plus herbeux (herbes fraîches et mouillées), plus sec et légèrement terreux. Post-goût long et sec, moyen-amer de houblon citrique, herbeux et légèrement terreux avec des notes fruitées (zest d’agrumes).
