"An execllent buckwheat offering, strong aroma and flavour. Pours a nice colour with little retention. Slightly unique take on this creative brew. I enjoyed the presentation very much as well. Very agreeable and something different, very pleased to come across. "

[3] Review by E from Spring Mountain, PA, USA who has tried this beer once. (8/23/2005 8:06:41 AM)
"Poured a hazy orange amber color with a medium sized, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, lots of spices (think juicy fruit gum), and light banana. Tasteof banana, more bubblegum, tons of spices, yeast and some tart wheatiness in the background. Really nice and spicy, thanks Steve!"

"An interesting beer from Quebec -- color me impressed with this one....
My first exposure to the Brasseur RJ -- this sample coming to me in a 22-oz (er, sorry "660mL") bottle. Features a rather scary looking scene, of a man in obvious pain, holding his head, as some sort of amorphic, brain-like clump mysteriously floats in the air nearby -- gloating over the puny human and his weak will, perhaps? Could the evil that is depicted in this scene mirror what is contained within? Hardly.
Immediately comes across as something a bit different than the norm, that's for sure. Coriander? Not neccesarily fruity in the nose nor the front-end flavor, but definitely has that certian twang of something interesting going on. Not so sure if it's the spice added to this beer, or the not-often-used buckwheat in the malt-bill, but this is nicely flavorful, and quite pleasant to drink.
Finishes a little dry and sour, but otherwise, I can honestly say that I have no complaints with this beer. A very interesting and worthwhile beer to sip on at the end of a long three-day weekend.

[5] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (6/7/2005 8:04:29 PM)
"750ml crown caped "bomber". A hard pour puts a cloudly orange-gold ale with a small but puffy cap in your wit glass. Natural abundant small-bubbled effervesense is lively in the glass. Aroma is a whallop of spicey corriander of dry buckwheat malts and a slight mustyness...attention grabbing aroma! Front side has an hearty body and silken mouth feel ...dominated by spice tones coming from the buckwheat husk, yeast and corriander....middle is malty-dry with some earthyness... finish is long with the spice nature returning and pummeling the tongue until the rye-like after tastes kick in...what a ride..great variation on a traditional style...me like varra mucha!
