Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a medium size dirty brown color head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of dry bitter roasted malt with some black chocolate notes with very subtle Cognac notes. Taste is also dominated by dry bitter roasted malt notes with sweet undertones and black chocolates notes with light warming Cognac notes. Body is full with oily-like texture with good carbonation. Enjoyable though Cognac doesn’t really come out as much as I had anticipated.

Initial smell of hibiscus is very nice. Aroma has light orange and citrus hops, a little malt. Pours light pinkish with good head and lacing. Finishes is nice, well-balanced with bitter perfume. Some sourness as well. Great. Bottle from Bellwoods.

500mL bottle, sent from wilco (thanks a lot, Mike), pours a cloudy, opaque pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings tons of soft pine and floral notes, like a fresh meadow, with some crackery malt in the back. Flavour brings out loads of floral notes, again like a fresh meadow, some mild citrus, and biscuity malt. Very fresh, floral and dry on the palate. Highly drinkable pale. Great stuff.

Nice, well-rounded saison. Better than the samurai. Pours slightly cloudy blond with good lacing, a little head. Aromas of banana, clove, some barnyard funk and hay mulch. Average carbonation. Finishes sweet and sour. Tap at brewpub.

Nice original beer here. Follows the whole white ipa trend and does a better job than most i’ve tried so far. Pours cloudy password good lacing and head. Citrus hops on nose with some florals and yeast. Lively carbonation. Finishes slightly bitter with an almost minty tang. On tap at Bellwoods.

Bouteille 750ml, courtoisie de Johnsense. De couleur noire-brune et opaque. Nez de malt très rôti, légèrement brûlé et aux notes terreuses, de chocolat noir, léger de chocolat au lait (faibles notes lactiques), léger de mélasse avec des notes d’alcool, de fruits foncés, de noix et de café. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-doux ainsi qu’une texture riche, légèrement sirupeuse et aux notes crémeuses. Léger goût fruité (pruneaux, traces de raisins) accompagné de notes de chocolat au lait (traces lactiques) et de réglisse noire lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de malt assez rôti et légèrement brûlé avec un goût de chocolat noir et un léger goût de mélasse terreuse. Parallèlement, l’on retrouve un léger goût d’alcool réchauffant auquel se rajoute progressivement une légère amertume de houblon herbeux (notes de menthe) ainsi qu’un léger goût de café, jusqu’en finale. Post-goût long, léger-moyen amer de rôti (notes brûlées), moyen-léger d’alcool et de chocolat noir, léger de houblon herbeux avec des notes de noix et de café.

This Hefe poured a light yellow color, very cloudy. Scents include pineapple (citrus), dough and bread. First sip was a little thin feeling but not in a bad way. Flavors of citrus and grass most predominant. Finish is citrus juicy!

This ipa poured a medium amber colour with a beautiful, rich, frothy head. Scents include grass, spruce and citrus hopp scent most predominant. First sip was very hoppy but not quite astringent tasting.Hand full of hop though. Finish is bitter with grassy notes lingering.

Bottle - Citrus, lemon, grass and yeast. Cloudy gold with a thin head. Effervescent, citrus, hay and the typical yeast. Great farmhouse, perfect for a patio. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
