3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Found this in the store when I was visiting Montreal. It was a nice surprise. Solid beer. Its a standard bitter. The more I got into it the more I liked it.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
CASK: A dark amber ale with a thin off white head. A pleasant herbal hops aroma, light caramel and tangerine notes. In mouth, a light bitter ale with floral British hops, sustained, a bit too light. Served at room temperature. Tasted at St-Bock, 31-10-08.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bière à 4,5%, de couleur orangées.
Dégustée à La Barberie même et en bouteille.
Léger goût sucré de caramel, suivi d’une forte amertûme en finale, qui nous rappelle le pamplemousse.
D’après moi, meilleur en bière pression, qu’en bouteille.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
on tap at La Sainte Bock in montreal, labeled in the bar as Bitter Cask.
Looks like a cask ale, nice frothy bubbly head, and served at the perfect temperature. Wicked nose of english hops, lots of goldings, and fuggles. Flavour is intesnsely hoppy, butrnot over powering, just a great flavour, with a nice malt in there to balance thing. Excellent bitter.

Bitter is a good name for this beer. It goes for the taste and the bitterness or the disappointment. I tasted some sweet taste of caramel but also some spicy taste. Not to my liking.
0.5 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20
wow, this one is bad. Sweet malty vegital yeasty low bitter flavour packed into a cloudy deep red sludg. Light fruity hint, some earthness, grassy ness and burnt shugar, followed by a dry coton like finish. Not a choice for my future, I asure you
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Sample from 500 ml bottle at the Mondial. Hazy dull copper with a bit of beige head...vegetal, slightly sweet nose offers a hint of pepper for not enough interest...body mostly dry after some nice light fruitiness early on, small hints of caramelized malt, bit of pepper and scratchy grass...somewhat astringent, cottony-dry finish.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Doughy, caramel, toffee aroma is somewhat metallic. Hazy, burnished copper coloured body is topped by a low tan head that recedes rapidly to ring. Fairly bitter with grassy, orange-citrus hop flavours. Underlying caramel malts are apparent. Medium-light body with fair carbonation though somewhat slick and coating on the teeth. Bottle sampled at Mondial de la Bière 2005.
