Aug 19, 2008 Black pour with a pale, foamy head. Good-looking modern label. Mellow, hoppy aroma with something unusual in it, like fresh fruit or heather. Light-bodied and mildly carbonated, with a fresh, dry flavor. I don’t really taste (or smell) much seaweeed, but I do detect spicy hops, light grains, and a touch of salty ocean breezes. However, this is not an irritating, experimental brew - it is very easy to drink and enjoy.

Aug 17, 2008 Bit of a dismal head on a fairly dark brown body. Some chocolate in the taste with a bit of what seems to be seaweed on the aftertaste or is it more like a peaty malt taste. Some roasted malts in the aroma though only soft.

Aug 11, 2008 This beer is a bit earthy and light in flavor. It has an aroma of a brown ale, it seemed a bit nutty. Good flavor with a brown ale similarity, but slightly bitter in the finish.

Aug 4, 2008 [1295-20080415] 1pt0.9floz bottle. Grainy roasted malt aroma. Clear, dark amber brown body with quick off-white bubbles. Grainy fish cakes flavour has an alcoholic finish and malty mid-tones. Medium body. The elusive kelpie need not be sought after all, though she be a fair catch in the drink.

Aug 1, 2008 Bottled. Pours a dark amber color with a medium thick beige head. The aroma is light roasted malts, earthy, something I can only assume is seaweed, and grass. The flavor has moderately sweet malt, lite chocolate, fruit, and grass. Medium bodied and on the interesting side. I won’t revisit this.

Jul 14, 2008 Very dark brown pour with thin tan head. Aroma of chocolate roasted malt. Taste has more roasted malt, chocolate, and mildly bitter chocolate. To be honest I can’t taste any of the seaweed except perhaps in some saltiness in the finish. Good carbonation but slightly watery mouthfeel on the finish.

Jul 11, 2008 Bottle. Pours a very dark brown/black. Aroma is kinda sweet, kinda earthy. A little chocolate. Maybe a little veggie/saltiness, but then again, I’m looking for a seaweed flavor.
