Marche Rahman’s recipes are brewed at this brewery. Mr. Rahman himself did not endorse this one, he told me I may wipe my mouth after, or maybe I’ll like it. I thought it a weak DIPA, a passable regular IPA. Quebec itself, I do not think into DIPAs much. Pours golden with lots of beige foaming head. OK aroma of malt. Medium mouthfeel, even a tad above. Drinkable, though not very. In fact, maybe one of Rahman’s best.

Bottle from Super Marche Raman aka le paradis de la bière. Orange-amber with a light head, low lacing. Strong hop aroma, maybe centennial and northern brewer. Caramel, minty, citrus fruit flavors along with alcohol and spice from coriander, possibly cinnamon, but not so much the yeast. Good stuff...h

Bottle bought at Rahman, 2.49$. A hazy golden ale with a thick creamy off white head. In aroma, a nice floral hoppy ale with fruity notes, sweet caramel, mango, and tea. In mouth, a sweet I2PA with good sustained floral hops, caramel, notes of cinnamon and pepper. A very interesting and fun offering from Pascal!

UPDATED: APR 29, 2008 Bouteille 341ml. De couleur orange-ambrée et voilée. Nez de houblon citrique (pamplemousse) et résineux, malté de caramel sucré, de levures fruitées (abricots, agrumes) ainsi qu’avec des notes épicées (coriandre) et d’alcool doux. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture légèrement huileuse et résineuse. Goût moyen-amer de houblon citrique (pamplemousse) et résineux (une amertume présente toute la gorgée), de levures fruitées (agrumes, moyen d’abricots, traces de mangues et de pêches) accompagné d’un léger goût épicé (coriandre et traces de cannelle) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût malté de caramel sucré aux notes terreuses avec également la faible présence de toffee et de biscuits puis en finale l’on assiste à un regain d’amertume de houblon plus asséchant, plus herbeux (herbe et thé) et accompagné d’un moyen goût d’alcool doux et réchaufffant ainsi qu’un petit goût épicé (poivre). Post-goût long et un peu sec, moyen-amer de houblon résineux, citrique et herbeux, moyennement fruité (zest d’agrumes et pelures d’abricots) et léger d’alcool.

Bottle from Super Marche Rahman, Montreal. Very hazy orange-amber with a good sized white head. Nice aroma of orange candy, light caramel, resiny hops - which pretty much describes the flavour as well. Body is full, a bit creamy, nice. Lingering hops in the finish, and a very slight alcohol warmth. A very nice quaff.

Bottle. Pours a very bubbly cloudy orange-copper with an average size fizzy off-white head. Mild aroma is pleasantly fruity & hoppy along with caramel malt and a hint of spices. Flavour of resiny pine hops, fruit, caramel malt and a nice long bitter finish. A bit of alcohol in there but in a good way as well as some spices. Medium bodied, well carbonated. Definitely one of Au Maitre-Brasseurs finer efforts, I enjoyed it.

Bottle (341ml). Via trade with Viper666. Cloudy orange pour, average fizzy diminishing white head (3+). Light apricot sweet roast malt and very pleasing sweet grapefruit/resin hop aroma (7+). The taste is also very pleasing - solid dry resin bitterness, with pine resin, hardwood and black tea riding right over the top of the sweet malt - very long bitter finish, but not quite DIPA in intensity. Fairly thick body, nice astringency with enough carbonation to keep it lively, realy very good, one of the better Canadian attempts at a strong West Coast IPA, falls a little short, but full marks for the effort!

Slight cloudy amber-orangeish hue, with a white head, yeasty, fruity nose of peaches and apricots, somme toasty, caramelized malts, with a nice spicy coriander note, a mild flowery hop pineyness in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, fruity, flowery hop character of candied peaches and apricots, with a sweet toasty graininess,a coriander spiciness, a mild juicy cedary, coniferous accent, leading towards a peachy hop bittering finish.
