Can from the Newfoundland liquor store in St. John's. First though, I glanced at the previous reviewers. 12K beers reviewed? Ok. 22k? 25K? 30K! Wait, what? 85K!! Crazy! Ok, Ok. This beer is quite nice..some hay malts supporting a handful of laco funk – a little stone fruit, socks, some slight aserbic bite that lingers. Really, really nice. I appreciate the straight, non-fruited sour. Thanks for this one rough waters.

Can from the liquor store in Gander NL enjoyed at the hotel. Lightly hazy gold color with a white bubbly head. Bready malt floral hops. Earthy spicy astringency. If you told me this was a Belgian beer I would believe you. As a lager this one is rough.
