    Moxie's Downtown Toronto (Toronto, Ontario, Canadsa)
    October 23, 2013
    The beer pours a translucent red with a 1" tan coloured head that laces well. The aroma was caramel, nuts, and grains. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour was caramel, slightly sweet, with some metallic notes. Overall, not a bad beer.

    The beer pours a hazed straw gold colour with a rocky white cap that lasts and laces well. The aroma is pumpkin, spices, funk, and earthy hops. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is metallic pumpkin, grains, and weak spices. Smells much better than it tastes in my opinion...too metallic, not enough funk.

    The beer pours a translucent Indian Red colour with a thin tan head that lasts. Aroma is caramel malt, grains, and weak herbal hops with metallic notes. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is sweet malt, caramel, weak coffee and tinny notes. Not a great purchase.

    The beer pours a hazed rust colour with a decent sized tan coloured cap kept alive by copious effervescence. The aroma is rye, caramel, and spices. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is sweet malt, some hoppish bitterness with a spicy finish. Quite good.

    The beer pours a slightly translucent orange brown colour with a generous tan head that lasts a while. Highly effervescent. Aroma is pumpkin, nutmeg, and caramel with only a hint of hops. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with above average carbonation. Flavour is on the bitter side with notes of burnt pumpkin, spices and caramel. Another solid beer from Renaissance.

    The Iron Maiden inspired beer. It pours a translucent light copper colour with a very thin white head that quickly disappears. The aroma is grains, caramel, and cardboard. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavout is light caramel, grass, and peppery spiciness in the finish. Average beer.

    The beer pours a translucent copper colour with a 1" loose light tan head. The aroma is caramel, citrus, and grains. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavour is weak and almost has a diluted nature to it. Hints of citrusy hops and weak grains. Even for an English Pale Ale, it comes across as weak.
