3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20 Rastacouere (5923) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - OCT 3, 2007
Hazy copper coloured ale covered by a lasting off-white ring. Spicy toasted malts appear at first bready, but remind more of pancakes and with a strange algae-like herbal touch. Blueberry and strawberry toppings join in as well. Surprising flavours that you would not expect to be so good a match, but the balance is present and the assembling is efficient. One of my favourite from Wales, but quite watery.

Cask@GBBF2007. Deep amber colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is really much a wet cold cellar with mould and some balancing up caramel and fruity hops. Flavour is extremely wooden with some very earthy notes. Very refreshing and different.

Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Northampton BF. A hazy murky brown color (not golden as the commercial description suggests). The aroma is malty but with hints of sulphur. The taste is malty and tastes a bit homebrew with some chemical qualities. Not very good.
