Bottle. Dark sugar malt aroma. Hazy chestnut, big golden lacing head. Sweet malt base, molassis, nuts, subtle but noticeable hop presence. Solid body chewy. Quick sweet finish. Definitely one of the best renditions of a Doppelbock I have come across in North America so far.

Bottle: Poured an hazy orangey color ale with a large foamy head with great retention and some very good lacing. Aroma of pine and citrus notes is quiet intense. Taste is dominated by citrus notes with loads of pines and a slightly sweet malt backbone. Body is quite full with great carbonation. Very well brewed though maybe a bit too astringent for my taste.

Blond color; nice creamy head. Aroma of cereals, grainy, and hay, but behind there is a light hop note. Quite common flavor, light malt and hay, but again with a subdued pleasant hop. A little but pleasant Lager, underestimated.

2019-02-01, draught at Big Rock, Vancouver, 5.6% ABV, 5-5-6-2-11=29
Clean light amber colour with creamy head. Metallic feeling covering some amber malts, robust bitterness with little hop quality.
Mediocre IPA, and I'm being generous.
2013-01-03, draught at Tap & Barrel, Vancouver, 6-5-7-4-14=36
Amber color, darker, with small creamy head. It has some aroma of malt and hops, not exciting though. Good caramel flavor, with reasonable body strength, moderate residual sweetness, and a good hopping, bringing in mild resins and light fruitiness (bitter oranges mainly).
A good beer, a caramelly IPA.
2010-03-26, bottle, 5.6% ABV, 7-4-7-5-16=39
Hazy amber color, small head. Caramel and hop aroma, raw sugar, light cookies. Good toffee flavor, with some dark caramel, and minimal residual sweetness; it's also a bit biscuity, very nice. Good hopping, both strong and aromatic, well balanced. Long final. High drinkability for this quality brew.

Hazy amber color. Small head. The aroma has some nice malt and hop, yet simple, with wet paper too. Thin body, metallic caramel flavor, correct bitterness.
2010-03-23, draught at the Moonraker, New Westminster
Amber color. Light fruity aroma. Simple flavor, some caramel, a bit metallic and papery, with some light fruity hopping. Pleasant but simple.
