[1790-20081017] Cask. Boozy spiced fruit grains aroma. Murky, medium orange brown body with no head. Mild grains and fruit flavour with long finishing mid-tones. Medium body. Not much there but drinkable.
(Cask Days 2008 @ Volo; Toronto, ON)

A golden amber marzen with a thick lacing white head. A caramel malt aroma, with light vegetable notes, a bit of mashed beans, and sweet fruity esters in finale. In mouth, a nice crisp malt with light berry and grape notes, nutty finales, and hops coming as beer warms up. A good beer. Medium bodied. On tap at Wellington Gastropub, Dec. 11 2008.

On cask, Volo cask days 2008. Copper pour small white head. Mild malty aroma with hints of fruit and some hops. Taste follows, more malt with light hops and perhaps a light spiciness. I only took a few notes on this one as I enjoyed it, but it was not remarkable.

Cask. At Volo Cask Days 2008. Ah, another Beau’s. Cloudy orange pour, wispy whiteish head. While not horrid, smells like malt extract and spoiled OJ. Tastes of wet grain and orange oil (which isn’t something I would normally willingly drink). Slick, somewhat thick mouthfeel, acidic and coatingly bitter in the linger - ehhh, it’s a Beau’s, my expectations weren’t that high so no worries.

Cask at ’Volo Cask Days 2008’. Pours a cloudy orange-copper with no head. Aroma of tart fruit, light spices, light hops and malt. Flavour’s fruity and spicy along with caramel malt and a light bitter finish, though a bit milder then I’d like. Average bodied. Nothing great, like I said it’s somewhat mild, but a good beer nonetheless.

Cask at Volo cask days, October 2008. Clever title. Pours a hazy orange with no head, just some surface bubbles. There is peach in the aroma, citrus, orange, icing sugar, grass. The flavour starts sweet with citrus, peach, apricot and a bitter hop finish.

Volo caskfest 2008. Pours a light brown. CInammon, caramel, and smoke. Minimal head. WateryOther vague spiciness. Minimal aromas, some smoke.

on cask at volo. cask days 2008. orangy/brown with almost no carbonation. subtle malt playfulness with fruity aspects as the main focus. some hop bitterness but not over hopped. a nice break from the hop bombs and a solid brew all around.
