Bottle, thanks a lot Todd! Piney and sweet flowery hops on a smoke background. Red indeed, creamy brown head. Roasty and fine smoked entry, berry and pear notes. Medium chewy body. Roast/smoke and resin exit. I rather liked this one!

A deep dark stout with a thick creamy moka head. A classey chocolate malt aroma with light coffee aroma. In mouth, a light chocolate malt with light olives, light and enjoyable. Medium bodied. Trade with Capflu. Tasted Late November 2006. .

Not really an Imperial IPA, more of an American Strong, as are most Imperial Reds. Brown, nice lasting tan head. Light citrus hop nose. Watery start, mild malt mid, medium strength lasting hop bitterness with medium alcohol heat. Lacks malt for body and balance. Another disappointment from this brewer, no matter what the style is supposed to be

Bottle, 12%. Refreshing grassy hop aroma. Clear dark brown colour, some red. Very small tan head. Sweet teaish flavour, quite caramelly. Rather thin mouthfeel considering ABV. Nice enough, but I guess I expected more from a beer of this strength.

Courtesy of Degarth. Pours black with thin mocha head. The aroma is mild with roastiness rolling into burnt malts pushing into an ashy region. The taste is smooth and blended and begins almost mildly as it heads toward midway for bolder brasher notes. It starts mildly roasty and becoming rich chocolate and then bold burnt malts. The flavor grows brighter into the finish. This beer has a light sensation for the style but very very tasty.

Bottle. Berry (cherry), sirup and honey aroma. Red brown, creamy brown head. Chocolate, roast and berry flavours. Relatively light body for the strength - fairly dangerous - the doppelbock of baleywines.

A dark golden orange ale with a thin big bubbled head. A pleasant fragrant hops with meaty notes, mint, fresh. In mouth, a good balance of biscuit malt and floral hops, lingering pleasantly, not over the top, light berry notes. Nice offering from BC. Bieropholie.

Bottle, Brewery Creek
Light gold with a gentle sparkle. Somewhat appley nose with the standard Merridales high alcohols. Maybe some malt base in there somewhere, but it’s definitely obscured. Tastes disjointed. The beer isn’t well-suited...it’s not a hoppy beer really but I think it’s too hoppy for this mix. There’s just enough hops to clash. Throw in the high alcohols and you’ve got some really astrigent ick that you really have to choke back. Chug fast, too - you don’t want to let it get warm.
