204/1185) Home: Porter by Labatts of Quebec: *1/2; I had no idea this was still made; it is only available in Quebec, which causes me to wonder why I shouldn't be able to get this in Ontario; there is limited, which is to say no, information about this one on Labatts' website; one could be forgiven for not identifying this as a porter; it features unusually sweet notes of chocolate and coffee, even cola flavours; I would say that it's OK, for a Labatts product it's very good but by no means is this my favourite porter;
Now I wonder if I will find Labatts IPA any time soon.
205/1186) Home: The Bold - Belgian Pale Ale by Dead Frog of British Columbia: **; 5%, 27 ibu; unfiltered; bitter, hoppy nose; there is a bitterness, courtesy Cascade and Columbus hops that lingers into the after taste; towards the close, fruitiness and spices characteristic of Belgian beers come in to play;
