330ml bottle<br> 7.5% ABV <br> LCBO # 255 (Milton, Ontario, Canada – Main / Bronte) <br> June 24, 2019<br> $4.95<br> The beer pours a very hazed orange gold colour with a huge frothy white cap which sticks around for a long time. The aroma is tart fruit, vinegar, burnt wood, and yeast. There is an almost tripel-like feel to the aroma. The mouthfeel is dry, medium bodied, and highly carbonated. The flavour is grains, yeast, tart fruit notes, and the oak comes through in the flavour on the back of the tongue. An enjoyable beer, but certainly not a sessionable beer.

The aroma is grainy malt, some fruity notes, light spice, and yeast. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is spicy, fruity, and milky all at once. A lot of similarities with rye beer in the spicy notes.

473ml can <br> 6.6% ABV <br> LCBO # 255 (Milton, Ontario, Canada – Main / Bronte) <br> June 10, 2019<br> $3.15<br> The beer pours a translucent light rust colour with a huge generous light tan coloured head which doesn’t last very long, nor does it lace very well. The aroma is caramel, some citrus peel, earthy hops, and a light spicy note. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied, sticky, with average carbonation. The flavour is well balanced between the caramel malt sweetness, and citrus peel bitterness in the finish. I quite like the beer.

The aroma is roasted malt, coffee, weak grapefruit, and grassy notes. The mouthfeel is full bodied, with average carbonation. The flavour is coffee, chocolate milk, and roasted malt. This is a decent porter or stout, but aside from a faint grapefruit aroma, and maybe some citrus peel flavour (both which can be found in overhopped stouts and porters) there is nothing to suggest this is a black IPA. NOTHING!

The aroma is weak citrus, light caramel, some perfumey hops, and some grass. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is light caramel and citrus. Sweet up front, bitter in the end. A nice little IPA that takes me back to the first decade of the 21st century.

Effervescence is average. The aroma is grains, light hops, light burnt wood, and yeast. The mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is very weak. Thre are some sweet malt notes up front, but the beer seems very watery flavour wise. There are weak hints that this has had contact with wooden barrel staves, but very weak at best.

It pours a very hazed orange gold with a thin creamy head which slowly recedes to a long lasting ring. The aroma is tart tropical citrus, grains, and funk. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with below average carbonation. The flavour is well balanced between the malted grains and the tart tropical fruit with the tartness lingering on the tongue for a while. Not bad for a year old gose, but I do wonder how it would have been if it was fresher.

341ml bottle <br> 5.0% ABV <br> May 23, 2019 <br> Gift<br> This was a gift from a colleague and former friend. The beer pours a translucent pale straw colour with a bubbly white head. Effervescence is minimal, although the head lasts a few minutes. The aroma is stale cardboard, grass, and musty hops. Better than your average macro, but not in the same class as most craft pale lagers. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with above average carbonation. The flavour is sweet corn malt, with very little in the way of a bitter hop finish. I will not be trying this beer again......ever!

The mouthfeel was medium bodied with slightly above average carbonation. The flavour is very grainly with hints of wheat, yeast, and a bitter hop finish. Not as much blueberry flavour as there is aroma. I hope the next PEI beer is much better than this one.

500ml bottle <br> 7.5% ABV <br> C’est What? (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)<br> May 17, 2019 <br> $13.50<br> The beer poured a mahogany colour with a generous foamy brown head, and left a ton of yeast on the bottom of the bottle. The aroma was dark fruits, nuts, caramel, yeast, and molasses. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour was sweet and bready with notes of caramel, dark fruits, yeast, and burnt sugar. It was a good beer, but not great.

340ml draught <br> 6.5% ABV <br> C’est What? (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)<br> May 17, 2019 <br> $6.64<br> The beer poured a translucent light amber colour with a creamy light brown head. The colour puts it somewhere between a maibock and a dunkler bock. The aroma is light hints of dark fruit, caramel, roasted malt, earthy hops, and grass. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is unfortunately dominated by notes of alcohol. This overpowers the mild notes of dark fruit, grass, and yeast. Looks good, smells good, tastes not so good.

The aroma is light caramel, toasted nuts, and eathy hops. Not a lot of depth in the aroma. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavour is similar to the aroma…nutty caramel up front, and a bitter hop finish. More of an amber ale than an Irish red.

The aroma is funk, grass, earthy hops, and yeast. Not much in the way of citrus or fruity notes in the aroma. The aroma is medium bodied with above average carbonation. The flavour is putrid! The flavour is dominated by funky yeast and grains, and nothing good about either of them! This brewery keeps missing the mark for me....and I like the town of Beamsville!

The aroma is funky yeast, grass, and a light wisp of blueberries. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour has more of a blueberry punch than the aroma, and while it is still subtle, you can definitely notice it among the funky grains, and yeast flavours.

The aroma is grass, raspberry jam, milk, and floral hops. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with above average carbonation. The flavour is very fruit forward, a lot of raspberries crossing over the tongue. Also notes of tart fruit, grainy malt, and a weak hop finish. The sweet and tart raspberry flavours drown out any bitter hop notes that may exist.
