Style: IPA - American

ABV: 6.6    IBU: 70

The Gladstone India pale ale (IPA) glints a dark copper, aromas of tropical fruit can be found, but resinous pine is much more prominent. Lightly malted, strong bitterness from West Coast hops is the focus, complimented rather than diffused by light fruit flavours. What malt character remains is most apparent after swallowing, where the light sweetness works to hold the bitterness on the tongue.

Style: Belgian Blonde

ABV: 4.5    IBU: 30

An extremely pale golden ale, the Gladstone Belgian Single exudes fruity and highly spicy aromas. These flavours are apparent in the light, peppery body as well, though they remain understated to maximize the refreshing character of the Single. Complimentary pepper flavours from light hopping and a grainy texture from the malts create a very dry finish that almost vanishes from the tongue.

Style: Pale Ale - New England / Hazy

ABV: 5.3    IBU: 34

A pale orange glowing haze reminiscent of grapefruit juice with a persistent white head. Aromas of tropical and stone fruits remain with a background of hop character; this version is a touch sweeter than the last batch with less hop burn, but the silky and slightly sticky character remains. More focus on citrus and dry tropical fruits from the addition of Cascade hops, with a mild lemonade character. Mouthfeel is still thirst quenching, with less sugar stickiness and a bit of a sappier finish. Leaves the palette more quickly than the previous batch as well.

Style: Porter - American

ABV: 5.5    IBU: 40

The black body of the Gladstone Porter is intimidating to some, irresistible to others. Strong aromas of dark chocolate waft from the creamy head, followed by flavours of coffee and malty sweetness. Mouth feel is surprisingly light, in the North American style, and dry toasted malt character is apparent on the finish.

Style: Red Ale - American Amber / Red

ABV: 6    IBU: 30

Dark red in color, aromas of caramel are immediately apparent. Floral and citrus hop character is apparent on the nose but toned down in the taste, doing little more than enhancing the malt character. The main focus of this beer style, the malts impart a light caramel flavor that stops before being too sweet and a nutty texture that fades into a dry finish. The creamy mouthfeel does not linger, making the Gladstone Red Ale refreshing despite its lack of bitterness.

The Gladstone Kolsch shines a clear golden straw colour with a fairly persistent clean white head. Light fruit aromas mingle with grain and spice that carry through nicely on the first sip.

Style: Märzen

ABV: 6.1    IBU: 22

Style: Stout - Irish Dry

ABV: 4.5    IBU: 30

- The Gladstone Dry Irish Stout boasts a deeply opaque black body complimented by a persistently dense, creamy mocha head. The dense head created by the Nitrogen mutes some of the aroma, but if you try you can smell rich roasted coffee, dark bakers chocolate, and a hint of sweet cocoa. These flavours are very obvious from the first sip, and pair wonderfully with the creamy Nitrogen bubbles that stream across the tongue and settle pleasantly in the belly. Mouthfeel is silky smooth and the beer feels much lighter on the tongue than the color and class would suggest.

ABV: 8.5    IBU: 35

The Gladstone Evil Spirit is a cloudy, though highly, polished gold, and smells strongly of fruit and spice. Pepper flavor dominates, amplified by hop spice, resulting in a very dry and light mouth feel thatdeftly hides the potently high alcohol level. Although light and refreshing, the Golden Strong is a mischievous 8.5%, so consume in moderation.

Style: IPA - Imperial / Double

ABV: 8.8    IBU: 90

Light passes easily through the copper body of the Gladstone Straight 8. Shedding the weight of malts in favour of more hop power, aromas of tropical fruits and berries are very apparent. Surprisingly sweet, the nature of the southern hemisphere hops is very easy to discern, with complimentary bittering from northern hemisphere cousins. The sweetness passes over the tongue quickly, leaving a dry, lightly bitter finish.
