Best beer I tried at the brewpub. Pretty solid all round but not to interesting.

On tap at Brewpub, rating #200! Exciting. Solid amber colour, white lacing. Grassy hop aroma with some malt. Oddly quick and thin to begin, though a decent hop and malt base gives a solid finish. Honey accent. A pretty good beer overall.

Objectively speaking: More or less a St-Ambroise pale ale clone with diluted flavours.
I like: Floral and citrusy hop flavour might well include cascade as well as the English varietals. The small head manages to cling to the glass. Light bodied and quite drinkable (besides the exagerated effervescence)
I dislike: Ridiculously high CO2 level conjures large bubbles that wash out the palate and take most of the room. Not quite rough carbonation, but too harsh for the subtle flavours that contained just the softest toasted maltiness. Also relatively sweet for its drinkability aspirations.

On tap- Decants deep golden/amber with a frothy white cap. No lace left behind really. Nose is biscuity, doughy, and fruity pale malts with a very fresh, floral and spicy hop component. Almost pine like floral hops with good earthy malts combine and lead into bread and licorice with lots of caramel towards the finish. Slightly bitter in the finish with lingering caramel and dark bread. Pretty good.

Draught. At the brewpub. Clear bright light amber with a solid beige creamy head. Dry aroma of roast caramel malt, quite a bit of fresh grain character (somewhat oily), light herbal bitterness. The taste was sweet and tangy, fresh cereal grain balanced by mild hops. The body was average, a bit chewy on the palate, light squeaky astringency with a slight caramel aftertaste - overall fairly decent, perhaps a tad too much caramel for my taste.

Draught at the brewpub. Now known as Dragoon’s Breath (note the extra ’o’), and contract brewed for KBC at McAuslan according to the menu. Deep golden-amber. Aroma of earthy hops and caramel malt, and flavour of both as well, with a short hop bite in the finish. Reminds me of McAuslan’s St. Ambroise Pale Ale, actually, although not quite as good.

Clear copper pour with a thin white head. Good aroma of floral hops with caramel. The flavor is less enjoyable than the aroma, the hops and caramel are still there but it feels flat. The body is light to medium with an oily texture.
