Oakes Profile - Brewver

Ok, the reference in the commercial description to the Void series has me asking questions. Blaine is basically a Vancouver suburb, after all. This is a dark brown, port ba stout w/ vanilla and candy cap. Rich umami and dark malt. There’s a reason I put soy sauce and cassareep in everything…umami as fuck. Candy cap does the same and this is so much richer than I’d expect an Atwood impy to be.

El Cedro (Batch #12) from Jester King Brewery

1 year ago

8.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5

Hazy and pale, medium Pale and slight haze. Medium head. Big cedar aroma, as advertised. Toasty aroma with lots of brett, good body, a touch of brett C but then the tannic assertive cedar takes over through the finish. Top quality.

Dark Thoughts from Baerlic Brewing

8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8

Dark brown with a thin head. Chocolate and mint, grapefruit. It’s got a good hop bitterness hit also this candied orange sweetness that brings this across the palate well.

Barn Owl (Blend No. 25) from Bellwoods Brewery

1 year ago

7.5/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5

Dark brown. Not much head. This has some beautiful umami, I mean Bellwoods does have one of the best base impies in Canada, and it shines here. The foeder lends only a touch of tannin, there isn't any wildness or anything. It's just an impy aged in a neutral barrel. Gets lighter than some other Bellwoods, but maintains malt complexity. But that's the point, bring some oak to a good base.

Bright gold. Medium head. Sticky sweet but also a decent herbal hop, touch of weed and a hint of citrus. Want to dry this out a bit.
