Metalchopz Profile

Hazed, golden colour with an orange hue, a big creamy-frothy white cap, good retention and creamyish lacing. Big stone fruit aromas with some citrus to balance, and a tad grassiness. A wet, juicy mouthfeel with just a mild, slow building dryness. Nectarine, mango, orange juice in the flavours, all well-blended, with nothing sticking out too much. Quite a nice juicy Double NEIPA, that almost feels like a NEPA. Dangerous!

Luminis from Brasserie du Bas-Canada

8.1/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8.5 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5

Hazy, golden colour with an orange hue, a smaller head, average stay and minimal lacing. Beautiful aromas of orange juice, with a herbal touch, some yeast and a tad spicy malts. Lots of citrus juices and lighter zest in the flavours and a tad white wine. A juicy mouthfeel with a slow drying finish. A nice, refreshing, juicy Double NEIPA with lots of fruitiness and decent dryness.

Partially Aclipsis from Memento! Brasserie Artisanale

2 months ago

6.3/10 — Appearance 5 Aroma 7 Flavor 6.5 Texture 6 Overall 6

Fairly clean, darker brown with some copper-ruby highlights. Aromas of chocolate, some booziness, roasted malts, a touch of coconut and hops. The taste shows the roasted barley with a touch of dark fruit, a tad sourness which is a little weird and hints of coffee. Not getting any of the maple syrup. Not the worst Imperial Stout, but not one well-balanced, that I would have again.

8.6 Black from Royal Swinkels (Bavaria Brouwerij / Swinkels Family Brewers / SFB)

2 months ago

5.6/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 5.5 Flavor 6 Texture 5 Overall 5

Clean, brown colour with some amber-ruby highlights, a light-beige frothy head, good stay and sticky lacing. Some roasted malt in the nose, with a tad sour cream, wet cardboard and a touch of grass. The mouthfeel is kind of creamy, not overly thick, nor syrupy with a certain wetness. A little chocolat in the taste, hints of molasses, blending with the roasted-caramel malts. Nothing too offensive, but still feels like a Macro, with some unbalanced notes.

Fudgy Brownie Sundae from Whitewater Brewing Co.

2 months ago

7.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 7

A darker brown colour with some ruby-copper highlights, and some small particles floating around - like spices). A huge, creamy, warm light-beige head with very good retention and sticky, creamy lacing streaks. Roasted malt aromas with chocolate notes, some caramel and a touch of vanilla. The fudge comes out in the taste, with a tad nuttiness, blending with the chocolate malts. A soft, creamyish mouthfeel with enough dryness in the end to cut the richness. Not a bad, Nitro Stout with the brownie-sunday feel that is a little more essences, but drinkable.

Bobhouse Banger from Refined Fool Brewing Co.

7.3/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7.5

A darker brown colour with copper-rubyish highlights, a light beige, frothy head, good stay and some thicker, foamy lacing. Aromas of roasted malts, coffee, with more of a hoppy, herbal touch than nutty. Not sure if the peanut butter is stuck at the bottom, not coming out, even after swirling like a MF, but not really getting much nuttiness, except a tad lingering in the finish, at last pour. At least as a Porter, it is not bad.

Rockette from Le Saint-Bock

2 months ago

5.4/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 5.5 Flavor 6 Texture 5 Overall 5.5

A light pink lemonade look with a little haze, a fizzy white cap, with light lacing. The candy in the nose is not too sweet, nor too strong. Well balanced with some citrus notes, and nice sourness. This continues in the taste. Seems like beer kept fermenting a little - as the can was solid, and that fermented-sour touch is present (sometimes found in orange juice). Not too offensive, but one of the more sour of this candy series, and less sweet. You do feel the tarty-candy-sourness of those candies though - so a plus for that.

Fardeau from Messorem Bracitorium

8/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8.5 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8

Hazy, golden-yellow colour with a white head, decent stay and some light lacing spots. Some big white grape aromas with herbal, cilantro, citrus notes tilting on the grapefruit side. Some good citrusy flavours with a touch of white wine and herbal hoppiness. Kind of creamy for mouthfeel, but not overly thick. Quite a nice NEIPA that shines the Rakau and Riwaka hops.
