La Fin Du Monde pours with a dark tan to dirty yellow color and possesses light wisps of bubbles at the top of the pour. The beer possesses a slightly tart nose that opens up to something slightly astringent and with a fair amount of sweetness. The overall presence of the beer in one’s mouth dissipates quickly, meaning that individuals will continually have a fresh experience of the beer. La Fin…
Orabelle is a Belgian tripel that pours with a golden yellow coloration and little in the way of head. The beer is more sneaky in overall alcohol presentation than many other tripels. There is a considerable floral and fruit side that is present at the beginning of each sip. The beer shifts into something incredibly easy to drink, with sweet and slightly tart elements present at about equal amounts. The streamlining of…

The Weather Station, the musical project of Toronto artist Tamara Lindeman, has announced a new album, entitled Loyalty. The project’s first release on Paradise of Bachelors wrestles with knotty notions of faithfulness and faithlessness – to our idealism, our constructs of character, our memories, and to our family, friends, and lovers – representing a bold step forward into new sonic and psychological inscapes.
