Première bière de la brasserie... Dégusté à la brasserie le 26 mai 2009, exactement 24 heures après le premier enfûtage à 16h00 la veille. Dégustée dans un verre tulipe de ( BDT ) en format d’une pinte. Apparence d’un brun ambré doux au reflet orangé cuivré avec une mousse collant moyennement au verre. Arômes de poire, de miel et de pain liquide rehausé d’une touche poivrée. Goût de céréales, de miel, de gingembre avec une touche herbale. Une bière très fruitée et maltée, persistante, épaisse et avec du corps. Cette compagnie promet ce qu’il se fait de mieux en matière de dégustation. Je doit reconnaître avoir ressenti une légère plénitude sur une pale ale, chose plutôt rare habituellement dans mon univers gustatif.......

2009-11-17. Crisp golden amber body with a nice foamy beige head and lacing. Mild aroma, lightly fruity, light grains. 6+ Flavour has a pleasant light bitterness, sort of odd but pleasant fruitiness to it, light alcohol shows a bit more than I would expect at 5.5% Smooth average palate, light carbonation suits it. Quaffable. On tap at the brewpub

Draught. At the brewpub. Cloudy light amber pour with an average off-white creamy head. Aroma of fresh, oily grain with a hint of tree fruit (pear? Apple? generic), a just a hint of honey. The taste was mostly grain and grassy bitterness, not much else - modest alcohol. Soft, chewy mouthfeel, slightly astringent, weakly carbonated, with a surprisingly long bitter finish; it doesn’t ever get VERY bitter, but what bitterness there is lasts a long, long time. Decent.

My Bottom Line:
Freshly-glazed honeyed cereals develop biscuity notes when crushed, before leafy hops conclude this accomplished, bubbly Pale Ale.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam skirts the cloudy blond.
-This beer’s modest flavor profile will please most neophytes, yet it displays enough malty nuances to entertain most craft beer lovers.
-The mouthfeel is lean, but never thin.
-The flavor profile is balanced, as in all Brasseurs du Temps brews.
-This is of course very drinkable and would make for a nice session.

On tap at the brewpub.

On tap at the pub. Nice hazy amber body with low carbonation and an average white foamy head. Enjoyable, well balanced malty/hoppy aroma with grapefruit hints. Taste is slightly misbalanced. It lacks some strength and complexity. Ends with a short bitter finish. Good effort.

At the brewpub - Above average pale ale but nothing spectacular. Hop aroma with caramel and some toffee. Taste has sweet malt, bread and hop.

On tap at the brewpub- A pale amber pour, taps a eggshell head. Nose of mild grassy hops and pit fruit, caramel, some citrus, a bit floral. Tastes of balanced sweet caramel malts and floral hops, bready, doughy, with a creamy a great bite to it. I love the creaminess here. The drinkability is second to none. Very good. Merci Dom, Merci Larry!

Light amber in colour with nice off white head. Good hop aroma with caramel malt backing. Bitterness is pretty good, its more on the sweet side though. its actually more like an APA in hop profile. a decent session.
