Artisans DePuis: GOOD, chalky start & really heavy

Le vache Folle: GOOD, starts strangely, improves

Mill Street Cobblestone Pumpkin Citrus: NOT FOR ME, but maybe for Angry Orchard fans?

La Voie Maltée La Gigonne Noire Oatmeal 4.0 % abv

What is it? Finishes very light. Too much barley for me. Chocolate? FAIR/GOOD

Alexander Keith’s Lunenberg Nova Scotia: VERY GOOD, the Blue Nose was one of the highlights of the trip

Big Spruce Cereal Killers Oatmeal: VERY GOOD, great finish

Le Trou Du Diable: EXCELLENT once it warms

Hopfenstark Black Francis: VERY GOOD, give it time.
