The very malty pale ale. This was dark but tasty. I was very happy to drink this brew.
They know there beer and seem to have a good following.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 Oakes (10191) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - DEC 29, 2002
UPDATED: APR 16, 2005 Bright brick amber colour; finger of dense foam denotes either a richly hopped beer or a frothier gas mixture. Probably the latter given the faintness of the nose - a little bit of herbal hop but little else. The palate is crisp, with some wood-oven notes and earthy, caramelly undertones. The finish is accented towards the foresty (American-style) end of the spectrum, but the hops are restrained and balanced by slight earthiness of yeast and malt, in the English style.

Faint amber colour with a thin white head. Little aroma, but what is there is good caramel malt and light cherry fruit. Taste is also quite fruity, some citrus and a nice bitterness. Spicy finish. Very good.

Draught at Amberjack Tap House, Surrey, BC Golden color; small creamy head. Light malt and hop aroma. Creamy malt flavor, ordinary; the yeast more than the hop gives a light fruity final. Correct bitterness. Simple but pleasant.
