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.

Hazy blond color. Nice aroma, fruits, sweet oranges, a bit funk. Smooth, I like the blond malts, delicate; nice bitterness level, not too strong, with orangey hops.
Very nice.

500ml bottle (thx, Peter!) at Brian’s. Pours a clear golden with a weak white head. First nose is tropical fruits, after some fruity and grainy notes. Taste is pretty the same with low to moderate level of bitterness and sweetness. Not bad.

750mL bottle, sent from wilco (thanks a lot, Mike), pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out shitloads of lime, followed by floral notes and light brett. Flavour is floral, with lots of brett, fruity esters, and light funk. Nice mix of funk and fruitiness. Excellent.
