Harvest Ale | Pale Ale | 6.4% ABV : Brewed with local ingredients at harvest time with dry hopping. Pours with a generous three finger head with excellent retention. Nice aroma of hops & caramel malts. Taste is of sweet malt and a nice clean hop taste, fairly thick on the pallet. Finishes with a good amount of hop bitterness. One note on the bottle, They look nice but of the 12 I purchased 6 were leaking to various degrees.
Double Chocolate Cranberry Stout | Imperial Stout | 8% ABV : Brewed with chocolate malt, cocoa, vanilla & local cranberries for the arrival of the northern winter. Pours a ruby black and retains a thin head. A delicious aroma of creamy chocolate comes off this stout along with roast malt and biscuit notes. Chocolate & dark malt flavors are pared will in this stout. Finished with a tartness that hits the back of the tongue. Tartness is all I can attribute to cranberries, wish it had at least a slight cranberry flavor. Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol.
Summer Weiss | Hefeweizen | 5% abv : Decided to pretend it was summer even though it is April and 9c outside. Pours a slightly cloudy orange with no head to speak of. Aroma is clove and banana esters. Flavor is again clove and banana which is a result of the yeast used, yeasty with some wheat sharpness as well. Sweet yet tart to drink, prickly carbonation and light bodied. Finishes spicy and crisp. I quite liked this beer but it will be even better when the warm weather arrives. Good to see they have proper flip top closures now as well!
