  Brasseurs du Monde Collection M Tropicale
  rated 3.7 7 hours ago

  Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

  Can that pours a light hazy, light golden-amber colour with a big frothy-fluffy white cap, good stay and leaving some thick foamy lacing. The nose gives out those berry and tropical flavours of jujubes. Very candied. Papaya mango and peach sweetness. The taste is where is does not becomes overly sweet, rich. Goes down nicely, thin enough with a decent dry finish. The ginger lingers, with its spiciness building with time. I really do not mind this one.

  Brasserie du Bas-Canada Définition

  First 950ml can of one of their sweet stouts from this brewery. Been waiting so long to have these heavy, alcoholic beers at home with the GF. Real dark brown with no highlights, a mocha-coloured head, average retention and light lacing. Big chocolate nose with some mild maple syrup. The cacao is smooth and not too rich in the taste, blended with the syrup. Hops are nicely balanced to cut the oversweetness, and the vanilla, coconut softens the finish. Definitely not as rich as their 10% ABV. sweet stouts, but amazing as all of the ones I have had from this brewery.

  Brasseurs du Monde Collection M Choco Cassis

  Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

  Can that pours a dark murky brown colour with a nice, big frothy-creamy, light mocha-coloured that has good retention and leaving some good dirty-foam lacing. Chocolate malt nose base with the fruity notes. Some sourness does come out, and is felt more in the taste. Choco-malt base with some berry notes. A decent dessert beer that goes down nicely, as not too rich.

  Trestle Brewing No Service (Cranberry Raspberry)
  rated 2.9 1 day ago

  Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

  Slightly hazed peach-pink colour with a big frothy white-pinkish cap, lasting a fair amount of time, leaving some light foamy lace. Lots of cranberries-raspberries in here, in the nose, with some hints of chlorine from the hops - I guess. It's just that mix it seems, which translate to the taste as well. Maybe the water. Looks like it could be the yeast notes I am also getting stronger and stronger in the mouth. This and the fruit give a little tart. Sour enough, but just can't really like this thing that is bugging me from this one.

  Wellington Sun Stands Still Dark Sour

  Part of their Mix Pack Vol. Nine, pouring a clean copper brown colour with a frothy light mocha-coloured head leaving a little bubbly ring on the brew. A nice blend of roasted malts and fruity aromas, with the sourness. Quite sour in the taste as well, giving some puckering. The cranberries are stronger in the taste, taking over the malts which are harder to find. Dry finish with a tad of tart and roasted malt flavours lingering. Gets a little hazy at last pour. Almost seems more like cherries in here - but a nice dark fruity sour one.
