On draught at the brewpub in downtown Victoria, BC. Pours a clear copper amber brew with a fast dissolving off-white head that leaves behind some spotty lacing and a thin off-white ring. Aroma of caramel malt, some light hard fruits and a touch of grassy hops. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonated with flavors of mild caramel malt, some mild spices and a touch of citrus. Finish is semi-dry with aftertaste flavors of roasted nuts, bitter herbs and some caramel.

7/14/07 On draught at the brewery. Aroma is caramel forward balance with a low earthy hop character. Appearance is light copper with a good white head. Flavor is well balanced, with sweet malt forward followed by medium bittering and a slight resiny finish. Mouthfeel is medium/low bodied with a moderate carb texture. Overall, this is similar to Redhook ESB, with a more English than American hop character.

Pours a clear light brown with the briefest of heads and no particularly memorable aroma. Taste is peculiar - macro malt profile with an attempt at more bitter anglohops, but ultimately the hopping does not blend and the beer tastes confusing. Slightly undercarbonated (served on-tap) and thin with no aftertaste to speak of. Points for effort.
