3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Ferris (8510) - Burnaby, British Columbia, CANADA - AUG 1, 2013
Draft - Toasted malts, smells just like a Marzen. Clear amber with a thin white head. Toasted malts, some grain and a nice bitterness to balance the sweetness. A nice example of the style, with a hoppy finish. I am having trouble understanding this and their other beer James, very similar except for the malt profile which has more roast and chocolate.
