The beer has a
malty, faintly metallic nose with some brown sugar sweetness and a
hoppy kick. The scent-picture painted by the aroma is well-actualized in
the flavour, with brown sugar, caramel, and malts in good measure up
front, and a pleasingly bitter, gently metallic, and unexpectedly grassy
back end.
This English-style, Québecois Extra
Special Bitter ale is a well-executed take—a tasty, fairly strong, and
flavourful version of a classic pub-style pint. My only beef is that
there was a bit too much sweetness through a finish that could have been
crisper.
Rating: 8.5 out of 10.
