Commercial Description:
The "Fumisterie" is an amber beer with a golden hue. It has a thick head which sticks to the glass. This Hemp Ale has a light malt aroma intertwined with a touch of hazelnut. The fullness of the beer is complemented by the taste of malts and a light sweet savour. The hemp flavour is revealed by a delicate essence of smoked hazelnut while the flavour of the hops arises softly in the aftertaste.

Légé goût de noisette, un petit peu sucré et une douce arrière goût. Une bonne bière à boire à n’importe quelle temps.

Copper colored body with a festive vienna-like nose and flavor. Corn, husky grains and rusty-red ale malts, with a sweet and toasty, gritty flavor. Some biscuit and toast flavors to finish it off.

On draught at the brewery, March 2005. Having never cared for hemp ales (or more accurately, having never had a hemp ale for which I’ve cared), I didn’t go in to this with much expectation. Warm-toned, clear amber colored beer, with a little bit of vibrant orange and a small white head. Smells of dry fruits (peach and apricot) with a clean ale yeast presence and some lightly sweet, nutty malt. Flavor is nowhere near the horribly astringent, bland hemp ales I’ve had prior to this. Far from it, in fact, as this one was quite tastey. I don’t know about all of this talk of hemp, smoke and hazelnut, but it seemed like a lightly chewy, crystal malted amber ale, with some fresh, mildly citric hops to finish and a wonderful lightly creamy body that I really enjoy about this brewery. It’s difficult to rate these beers highly, as they seem to be more about execution and subtlety, but this is fantastically well-brewed, I feel, and I have no problem giving it high marks.

Bought at depanneur near Dieu du Ciel brewpub in MTL. Off-White foamy head on a slightly cloudy amber gold body. Aroma is caramel malts and mild frutiness (orange) and a little spiciness. Flavor is sweet with subtle caramel and oak. Finish starts spicey and finishes sweet with mild hopiness. Well balance overall. I found this to be a really nice beer. Wish I’d bought more.
