6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of orange rinds, banana, clove and cinnamon. Flavour is along the same lines, with a very prominent spiciness of clove and cinnamon upfront, followed by banana and oranges. Pretty good for what it is, just not a preferred style of mine.

On tap at Alibi Room. Pours a very dark brown with a tan head. Aroma and taste are sweet, with fruity-berry notes (like cranberry), roasted malt, slightly bready. Where is regular banana and stuff?! :-) Quite good, though.

Draft - Light soured grape and wheat. Clear gold with a nice white head. Light funky yeast, touch of stone fruit and a fruity finish. Decent and easy drinking.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Hazy deep blond color, compact head. The aroma is mildly sour and fruity, sweet oranges. Nice mouthfeel, dry but not weak, soft in the final, with a lot of citrus peel character, oranges and cedar, grapefruit, and some astringency in the final going hand in hand with the bitterness.
Fresh and with a food degree of complexity. I love drinking it.
Excellent.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a hazy golden yellow with a medium white head. Aroma brings out citrus zest, some rustic farmhouse notes and a touch of funk. Flavour is very fruity, with lots of tropical and citrus fruits, followed by rustic farmhouse notes and citrus zest. Quite yeasty and carbonated, but fittingly so. Very good.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh melon, like cantaloupe, and light citrus tartness. Flavour is very vibrant and fruity, with lots of fresh juicy melon, some piney dry hopping, and very subtle citric tartness. Barely sour and not terribly complex, but it's juicy and refreshing. Nice stuff.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Dark brown color, almost black. Aroma of dark fruits. Strong body, the light roastiness is not very pleasant for a sour beer, same for the dark caramel; but the mild presence of dark fruits is fitting, and so the astringency in the end; a bit too woody in the final, though.
Imprecise, but not bad.

Draught at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Hazy golden color. The gentle sourness blends perfectly with the citrusy hops, plenty of mandarin indeed, and some astringency in the final.
Excellent.

Cask at St. Augustine’s, Vancouver
Cloidy pale color. Mild fruity aroma. Dry and smooth; lightly fruity, but loaded with bready yeast, possibly autolysis. Low bitterness.
Something is wrong.
