The aroma is grains, herbal hops, and weak tropical fruit notes. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with below average carbonation. The flavour is nicely balanced between the grains and the hops, but both flavours are weak leaving this beer as flavoured water with a hint of alcohol. Quite disappointed.

Can’t say I’ve ever seen a red pilsner before. The aroma is very grainy with some earthy hops thrown into the mix. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is typical pilsner flavour with grainy malt, a little spice, and a bitter hop finish. I am quite surprised given the colour of the beer that there are no caramel or sweet malt flavours.

340ml draught <br> 5.40% ABV <br> C’est What? (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)<br> November 16, 2018 <br> $5.53<br> The beer poured a translucent scarlet red colour with a thin white head which didn’t stick around. Lacing was minimal. The aroma was caramel, earthy hops, and grass. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour was as the aroma would indicate. A nice balance between the caramel sweetness and the hoppy finish.

340ml draught <br> 6.3% ABV <br> C’est What? (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)<br> November 16, 2018 <br> $5.97<br> The beer poured a murky yellow-orange colour with a thin white film for a head. The aroma was fruit juice (orange and grapefruit) and grains. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with above average carbonation. The flavour was akin to fruit juice with alcohol, with the juice tones being grapefruit and passion fruit. Not a fan of the style as they are more like alcoholic fruit juice than beer.

Highly effervescent. The aroma is very grainy with slight hints of caramel and herbal hops. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation.

The aroma is tropical fruit notes such as mango and passion fruit, some grains, and some musty notes. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is dry with a definite white grapefruit bent, there are also weak notes of grapefruit skin, some grass, and a little spiciness. Interesting.

The aroma is roasted malt, dark fruits, chocolate, and coffee. Smells amazing. The mouthfeel is full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is similar to the aroma with a definite woody taste thrown in. Chocolate flavour is milk chocolate more than dark chocolate. I like the beer, although the flavour doesn’t live up to the promise of the aroma.

The aroma is light brown, foamy, and providing good lacing. The aroma is dark fruits, coffee, chocolate, and roasted malt. The mouthfeel is full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is roasted malt, dark fruit, and there is a chalky flavour as well. A pretty good take on an American style by a Trappist entity.

The aroma was citrus hops, some roasted malt, and dark chocolate notes. The mouthfeel was medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour was a tad on the sweet side with dark fruit and chocolate flavours rounded out by weak citrus and coffee notes. It was quite enjoyable with no jolting aromas or flavours found in other ABAs

It stuck around. The aroma was grapefruity hops, caramel, weak spice, and grass. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour was a nice balance of caramel sweetness and grapefruity bitterness. The rye came through a bit in the aroma but was no where to be noticed in the flavour. Still, a solid beer.

The aroma is yeast, sweet candy sugar, brown sugar, and roasted malt. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with above average carbonation. The flavour is a miss for me as it falls kind of flat. The dark fruit and yeasty flavours are there that are typical of dark Belgian Strong ales, but they’re weak, almost in a watered down sense. Looks good, smells good, tastes weak.

The aroma is roasted malt, coffee, cherries and anise. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, creamy, and average carbonation. The flavour is not very b itter for a porter with the sweetness of the cherries cutting through the bitterness of the roasted malt and coffee flavours. This is the best Railway City beer I’ve tried in years.

The flavour has a hint of honey sweetness to go with the grains. The finish is mildly bitter with yeast and hoppy notes. A good beer.

The beer pours a golden pink colour with a bubbly white head which quickly disappears into a lively white film. The aroma is pink grapefruit, light wheat notes, and grass. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is pink grapefruit juice with a hint of alcohol. Quite possibly the least beery radler I’ve ever had.

The aroma is more herbal than fruit, although one can detect notes of citrus, especially oranges, and there are milky notes. The aroma is pleasant, but nothing like a beer should smell like. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with high carbonation, and I’m talking soft drink carbonation levels. The flavour is fruity with notes of orange, grapefruit, and lime and a touch of grainy malt. As a beer, this isn’t what I was hoping for, but it would make a great summer cooler/alcoholic soft drink for those who are into that sort of thing. .
