Driftwood Entangled Hopfenweisse Victoria, BC.

A fusion of delicate clove and fruity banana esters produced by Munich Hefeweizen yeast with the fruit punch that is Mosiac.

Notes of guava, passionfruit and mango are backed up by a chewy malt body and cut through with effervescent carbonation.

Overall - A pleasant hopped-up version of the Hefeweizen. This was the right amount of hop bitterness for this style - enough to notice, but without overpowering the other hefe qualities

Blindman Brewery Longshadows Vermont-style IPA

Lacombe, Alberta

Smell is a pile of hops--lots of citrus, lots of pine. Very fresh. Hay, slight grassy. Some malt.

Flavour is pretty interesting: big, big hop presence, but not a huge amount of bitterness. Surprisingly approachable for a high-ABV IPA, I'm not sure *where* the 7.1% ABV is hiding. Fairly lightly carbonated. 

Sound Brewery Humonkulous Oak Aged Triple IPA

Phillips Atomic Buffalo Smoky Red Saison Victoria, BC 

Limited availability

Atomic Buffalo is a complex mutant ale that infuses a herd of flavours into a unique stampede worthy beer. Pours a hazy red-rust colour with a modest white head. Warm aromas of dark bread and subtle banana lead to flavours of stone fruit and toasted cotton candy, finishing with a hint of smoke.
