Beerded_one (1551), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA May 30, 2006 Bottle. Pours yellow gold with a white head. Aroma of sweet malts, grain, and slight hoppiness. Flavor is sweet malts, grainy, and a slight bitter finish. Not a good brew, yet drinkable. DerWeg (372), Tronna, Ontario, Canada Apr 26, 2006 I have to rate this from memory, to honor a character Lager that was so good (when it was very fresh.) Distinctive wild hoppy/yeasty bouquet, sweetish malt base, medium pale and foggy/unfiltered in appearance. Drank very cleanly given how it looked, with subtle mingling aftertastes of mild bitterness and grapey fruit. I fricken loved this but it was too unusual for the pencil necks at head Office to grok. Amazing delicate summer beer made with a defiantly Craft ethic. boto (1197), Granby, Connecticut, USA Oct 27, 2002 A typical Canadian Macro. Nothing special. jrm212k99 (35), Hawaii, USA Apr 9, 2001 Wow, this was atrocious. When it comes to bad beers, there are watery beers, and then there are just bad beers. This falls in the latter camp. dbutler4699 (13), Elyria, Ohio, USA Dec 3, 2000 It’s really unfair for me to rate this beer as I think I got a skunky six pack (there was dust on the bottles when I bought it). If what I experienced was really what Algonquin tastes like, I cannot recommend the experience.
