Original 16 Canadian Copper Ale

◎ Appearance

A deep copper hue dominates the glass, reflecting the balance of roasted black and caramel malts in the grist. The beer presents clear and bright, with good light transmission and a modest, persistent white head that leaves fine lacing on the glass as you drink.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with toffee and light toast, underpinned by a subtle cocoa and dark bread character that adds complexity without overwhelming. Herbal hop notes sit discreetly beneath the malt-forward aromatics, offering a mild spice that prevents any cloying sweetness.

◐ Taste

Entry brings caramel and toasted malt to the fore, with a nutty dryness running as a thread through the mid-palate. The roasted character and light chocolate notes develop quietly, balanced by a gentle herbal bitterness that keeps the beer from turning sweet—the result is a medium-bodied, malt-driven experience.

◑ Finish

The finish is soft and malt-driven, fading gradually with lingering notes of toast and nuttiness. No sharp edges or astringency—just a clean, dry aftertaste.
