On tap at Kulshan, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out toasted malt and medium roasted espresso. Flavour brings out lots of espresso that dominates. Very nice coffee notes here. Total coffee bomb. Nice stuff.

On tap at Kulshan, pours a clear yellow with a small white head. Aroma and flavour are pretty subdued, with straw and biscuity malt and a rather astringent bitterness on the finish. Something a little off here. Meh.

On nitro tap at Kulshan, pours a clear copper with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out herbal, fungal notes, not much else. Flavour is similarly and fairly unpleasant, with fungal and herbal notes dominating. The fungal character makes this very unpalatable. Not a fan of the nitro here as well. Not good.

12 oz can poured. Clean, clear pale golden pour with a thin fizz head. Soft corn, straw, slight hop aroma. Light, cool flavor. Some straw, but overall, not a whole lot of flavor to speak of. No big flavor means no offensive flavor. Easy to drink for sure. Not bad, but nothing really exciting here.

Golden. Cracker malt, crisp and clean hop profile. Lightly zesty. A straight forward Lager with a very clean profile throughout. Good stuff.

On tap ar the brewery (K2) on the prior day. Pours an almost black with a dark beige head. Aroma is rich with bourbon, barrel, leather and dark fruits notes. Taste is slightly sweet and sour with some bourbon and dark fruits notes. Despite is is not so rich as the aroma, the beer is still pleasant.

On tap ar the brewery (K2) on the prior day. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Aroma is tropical fruits, slightly dirty and skunky. Taste is sweet, boozy, with tropical fruits and piney bitterness. Much better than their Double IPA.

On tap ar the brewery on James str. on the prior day. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Aroma is slightly sweet, tropical fruits, resiny. Taste is quite bitter with piney notes. Too bitter as for me without any sweetness that presents in the aroma. Very bitter aftertaste. Not bad.

On tap at Elizabeth Station, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out dank, earthy and herbal hops upfront, with biscuity malt. Flavour is heavy on the sticky resinous hops, some perfume, lots of alcohol and caramel malt. Rather harsh and lacking cohesion. Not bad, but this isn't among the better triple IPAs out there.
