 cyrenaica (231), Milton, Ontario, Canada
May 6, 2008 341ml bottle
5.0% ABV
I tried this beer on April 30, 2008 after purchasing an assorted 6 pack of Ontario Craft Brews from one of my local LCBO outlets. The beer poured a translucent orange-gold with a thin white rocky head that lasted. The aroma was typically Brick with some malty tones, some yeasty tones, and a little bit of hops. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, with some mild carbonation. The flavour was a nice balance of malts and hops, and was very good for a bottom-fermented beer.

Mar 29, 2008 341ml bottle: Yellow beer under a small head that reduces to a partial covering. Aromas of fruit, honey and grainy malts. Sweet up front with veggies, corn, caramel and grapes superseding the presence of some herbal hops. Medium body, metallic. End’s a little bitter. So-So.

Mar 25, 2008 Updated: Mar 26, 2008Standard microbrew pilsner. Better than macrobrews, but not by a lot. Nice and fresh, though. (I live in Kitchener, your mileage may vary if you’re out of town.)
