Oakes Profile - Brewver

Described as a Belgian single/pale. Amber, slightest haze, thin head. Sweetish, appley, some plastic notes. Light bitterness. The fermentation isn’t great so you mostly get notes you shouldn’t. Belgian yeast isn't something you do well if you're doing it part-time.

Gold but no head. Yeah, this needs way more carbonation. There’s some decent malt that is too sticky with this low carbo…and the hops aren’t actually big or bright enough. If my Canadian benchmark is the one from Godspeed, this is pretty far from that.

But props for having a foeder lager program.

Light roast. dark brown. Oh that’s a nice fruity note, layered dark sugars…this style on CO2 is rare but it usually does impress me. Light, complex…not actually hoppy or roasty so it’s more like a complex dark mild but still.

Medium brown. Not much head. Light and dry, a bit of dark fruit sugars…that character is nice…would love a bit more residual sugar and body…but for those who like this style on the drier side, this is pretty good.
