On tap at Storm, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Nose brings out loads of fresh mint and a touch of lime. Flavour is pretty much identical, masking any IPA characteristics. All mint here with subtle lime notes. Interesting one.

On tap at Storm, pours a cloudy golden orange with a medium white head. Nose brings out fresh raspberries, with subtle buried hop undertones. Flavour brings out a great mix of raspberries and dry piney hops. Interesting choice to add raspberries to an IPA, but this works very well. Very nice stuff.

On tap at Storm, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Nose brings out toasted malt, faint toasted caramel and metallic notes. Flavour is exactly the same. Fairly bland but well-balanced beer. Drinkable but boring.

Draught @ St. Augustine’s, Vancouver, BC

Pours amber red with a tiny head. Aroma of tart berries, sour yeastiness, wood, oak and vinous notes. Taste is sour, woody and oaky with some tart berries, yeast and vinegary notes. Finish is heavy, sour, woody and sweetish with some tart berries. Quite tasty but very sour and heavy.

Pours dark brown, almost black with a smooth head. Aroma of toasted malts, some roastiness, nuts and chocolate. Taste is smooth, toasted and nutty with some roastiness and chocolate.

Light brown, light fruity character, light brown malts, touch of fruit, a bit thin and the malts in particular are weak but I like the splash of fruit.

Clean, sweet, light brown, vanilla ice cream culture. A touch of tartness, light chocolate. Decent balance.

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy blond color with frothy head. The aroma shows delicate notes of grapefruit. Medium-dry, good base beer, but here the typical grapefruit bitterness plays an excellent role, even more than it’s fruity or acidic touch.
Very nice and refreshing.

Sampled on tap at Storm, pours black with a huge tan head. Nose brings out shitloads of vanilla, followed by whiskey-soaked wood chips. Flavour brings out lots of vanilla, cocoa and whiskey-soaked wood chips. Surprisingly nice. The whiskey isn't too overbearing, but the vanilla adds a nice compliment. Very smooth and drinkable. Solid stuff.

Sampled on tap at Storm, pours black with a small tan head. Nose brings out licorice, tart cherries and roast. Flavour reveals some nicely situated tart cherries - basically the Black Plague with tart cherries. Really excellent stuff. Dangerously drinkable.
