3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draught at Agro Café, Granville Island
Hazy amber color; creamy head, a thin layer is very persistent. Light caramel and apple aroma, then light malt; simple. The flavor is better: malt, caramel and toffee in equal proportions, strong bitterness, with final toastiness; maybe a bit too dry and bitter at the end.. Quite good.

Pours a cloudy orange-yellow with a nice head & some lacing. I could hardly detect an aroma. Taste is full of hops! Sourish and wheaty notes, as well. Body is thick and creamy, overall I thought it was very interesting and I liked the opping. Not bad! Sampled at the GCBF.
