Slight haze, bubbly head, soft body, a bit husky, light bitterness, not a whole lot of hop character. Nowhere near the style and not doing much happy anyway. But at least this batch isn't riddled with diacetyl.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a hazy copper with a small white head. Aroma is mineraly, with metallic notes, Cheerios, piney hops and biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with metallic notes, with subdued piney hops, and biscuity malt. A bit metallic and mineraly but it works pretty well.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a deep dark murky brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out Belgian yeast, banana, clove and red fruits. Flavour is sort of authentic, with clove, Belgian yeast, red fruits and cotton candy. A little estery and sweet, but the yeast profile is still pretty good.

Hazy light pinkish colour. Not much head. Has a spicy (rosemary, sage) nose with light cranberry. Very tart but clean, lots of cranberry and light spiciness.
