Can. Beautiful citrus nose with light crispy malt and a bit of tropical fruit. Bright medium g9ld with a middling head. Crisp, fruity, grapefruit and orange, dry, slightly tropical, herbal and bitter finish. Bit of pineapple and tropical fruit but not overly ripe. Quite excellent as expected.

Roasty, bitter, dank. Don’t see a lot of these black IPA beers anymore. This is an exceptionally fine rendition from 🌞.

66cl bottle at Belgian Beergeeks/Brewver summer tasting at Tim's house. Thanks Bjorn.
Brune foncée sur le noire, finement doré huileux au verre, col fin moka.
Arôme sur un bouquet marqué en malts -c'est profond et Lawson's reste dans ce caractère tr§s américain des gros stouts US. Chocolat avec une belle note de grillé et café. Le côté érable est subtile et apporte une touche un peu organique avec une pointe de fruits noirs en rétro-nasal.
Palais est sur le malté assez profond, c'est épais avec une douceur maltée chocolat assez marquée. BA goodness, caramel avec une bonne note d'érable en retrait. Le caractère café perce en retrait et accompagne bien la base bien maltée.

Can from AJ's. Rich Saaz-like noble hops, lemony and spicy. Biscuity malt. Bready, herbal, a bit dank even. A bit different character than Czech, but nice nose. Deep gold, medium head effervescent. Big lemon-lime flavor is totally inauthentic for a CZ lager, but still seems continental. Bready malts. Bitter finish. Somewhat minerally as well, which is somewhat strange. I like this but it's not very Czech. Almost more like an IPL.

Canary Square draught, 8/27/22. Lightly-to-minimally hazy peachy-apricot. No head. Wow is this an IPA? Smells like cracker malt, sweat and maybe some nectarine skin or something, I don't know. Could be that the draught line is bad here, which is definitely a thing at Canary Square, but this is just wildly bland. Same for the flavor. Nutty, slightly oxidized, very low bitterness with light melon and simple sugar. Cracker and just a hint of vegetal and spice note from the hops. Hate to rate something so low from a potentially unclean draught line, but thats the name of this game, I suppose. Would try it again.
