C'est What? (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)
February 14, 2013
Part of C'est What's Flying Monkeys Tap Takeover. The beer pours a solid brown colour with red hues and a long lasting tan ring. The aroma is weak, but consists of yeast, caramel, and fruit tones. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour is sweet, yeasty, with sugar and caramel dominating. Easily my least favourite beer of the Tap Takeover. -

C'est What? (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)
February 14, 2013
Part of C'est What's Flying Monkeys Tap Takeover. The beer pours a solid black colour with a thin brown ring for a head. The aroma was roasted malt, vanilla, and coffee. Mouthfeel was medium bodied, but thin for a porter, and had medium carbonation. Flavour was quite dry and licoricy for a porter. Bitter coffee, alcohol and roasted malt are the dominant notes. The aftertaste suggests that this was a barrel aged beer. -

Part of C'est What's Flying Monkeys Tap Takeover. The beer poured a hazed golden orange colour with a creamy tan head that laced very well. The aroma was pine, citrus, and caramel. The mouthfeel was medium to full bodied, quite creamy and medium carbonation. The flavour is in your face grapefruit up front and a peppery aftertaste. Quite a good beer. -
