Celtic Knot Project Maple
Pours a dark brown, almost black with dark tan head. Aromas of chocolate and nuts. Off flavors, almost sour - maybe a bad batch? Still, roasted malt flavours do come through with a hint of sweetness.

Celtic Knot Dark Passage
Last month we motored to Fundy Park and Alma. After a few hikes we ate at Tispy Tails and sampled the tap beers. I like dark beers and was extremely pleased with Celtic Knots Dark Passage oatmeal stout! My reaction to the tap brew had my husband ordering his own as I was not sharing! Kudos to Celtic Knot on my now fav micro brew. I just wish we liked in Riverview.

Celtic Knot Toque and Mitts
500ml bottle. Pours a gorgeous mahogany with lingering off-white head. Nose is smokey, with some stonefruit. Flavour was sickly-sweet, more akin to cough medicine. Alcohol certainly noticeable, more of a burn than a warming feeling. Worth a shot, but probably not one I'll revisit if given the opportunity.

500ml bottle. Deep black with a couple of faint mahogany notes; coffee and a slight citrus; dark chocolate flavour-wise with a slightly fruity note lingering in the background. A bit thin on the palate. Not my favourite style, but a decent interpretation.

Celtic Knot Éire
On tap at the Laundromat Espresso bar: Dense dark brown color with a copper hue. Slightly creamy light brown 1 finger head, lasting around 2 minutes, with faint legs. Flavors of dark roasted grains, toffee, faint chocolate, soft coffee, nutmeg, herbal spices. Highly sugary, with bitter red ale spices. Slick and slightly oily medium body with bland carbonation. Medium strength finish, deeply malty and spicy, with burnt sugars and sharp hops. A bit thin and flat. Okay taste, lacks balance in the flavors, not really pleasing. Coarse wet grains feel. Decent freshness. Overall average quality craft.

Flavors of mango, roasted sweet grains, grapefruits, lemon, pineapples, herbal spices. Syrupy and fruity, with thick spicing. Slick medium body with prickly carbonation. Medium strength finish, lingering sharp citrus with grassy hops. Good freshness, nice summer beer. Tasty and pleasant, but a bit too sugary. Overall good quality craft.

It’s honestly one of the best stout I ever tasted. I was impressed and especially surprised that it was made in Riverview, NB.

Draft @ the Tide & Boar. Medium amber colour, unfiltered, moderate white head, lots of lacing. Grapefruit and floral aromas. Taste is sweet grapefruit, some floral and sugar. Medium to thick body. Overall, might not satisfy purist hop-heads, but I rather like it. Reminded me of Mad Tom or Rock Bottom’s IPA.

Draft at Marky’s Laundromat. Very dark, nearly pitch black, no light penetration, medium off-white head, lots of lacing. Aroma was coffee and a little chocolate. Taste was bitter, but the hops and the malt blended to a coffee bitterness rather than any distinct hop flavour. Slight citrus twang. Thinner body than ideal. Overall, drank like a cold coffee beverage as much as a beer, but being served in a coffee shop may have biased me.
