Description
Burdock brewery set up shop in what used to be an old Portuguese chicken restaurant, and they transformed the space into an artist-driven bar/restaurant/music hall/microbrewery run by a group of musicians and music lovers. They offer a rotating list of clean pale ales, complex saisons, crisp pilsners, zippy sours, and beer-wine hybrids that are all brewed in house.

Cloudy and sort of a pinkish colour. Not much head. The aroma has light fruitiness with a touch of acidity. On the palate, soft, with a touch of sugar, and a hint of fruit. Good balance. I like the sweetness. Not much barrel or wildness, but the character of the beer is actually quite good. Quite drinkable.

375mL bottle, pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out oak barrels upfront, followed by saison yeast and some pithy berries. Flavour is quite complex, with loads of oak barrels, rustic saison yeast, and a touch of berries. Very complex, with a dry, woody and oaky finish. Excellent.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out a nice mix of peach and brett funk. Flavour is along the same lines, with tart peaches and brett funk in great balance. Fruity, funky and dry. Complex and well-constructed. Very good.
