COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Beau’s flagship offering is Lug Tread Lagered Ale, named after the tire treads of a small tractor, a true symbol of Eastern Ontario. Golden-hued, crisp and finely balanced, Lug Tread is a tribute to “Kölsch” the classic beer of Cologne, Germany. Lug Tread is top fermented (like an ale) and then cold aged, or “lagered”, for a lengthy period. This gives it some light ale notes, complemented by a lager-like crispness.

well its all natural. and, i guess, not a lager but a kolsch. to me it still just tastes like another average pale lager. not much smell. not a bad aftertaste at least, even after a whole 600ml bottle. certainly not worth the price. beaus does much better products than this one...

600 ml bottle. Clear golden appearance. Thick foamy head but short-lived. Strong bready/yeasty aroma. Mild hop bitterness, some grain, assertive yeasty flavour. Medium body, average carbonation, long mildly bitter finish. Not my favourite beer.

Had this one on draught, pale golden in colour with a frothy white head. Aroma carries slight bitter hop, bread and slight malt. As for taste, well I just don’t care for it. Bland, pedestrian, etc. Not my style, ’lagered ale’ that is. At least not this one.

Nicely flavoured lager. Refreshing, clean with a light colour. Makes for a nice summer beer even though it’s winter.

600ml bottle LCBO: Golden lager with white frothy head and lace. Malty hoppy aroma. Taste is bready and malty backed up by some bitter hop contenet. Balanced and clean.

zvikar (1204) - Tel Aviv, ISRAEL - DEC 11, 2011
At a tasting, thanks Dagan, pours yellow with a gigantic head aroma of flower blossom, bubblegum and some lavender, flavor of alcohol, cardboard, corn and fruit juice, light bodied

from bottle, tastes like a fizzy lager a little bit more going on in the flavour department but overall it’s uninspiring and unremarkable. Might serve as a good doorway into the world of craft ale for the Beer Store crowd but in my opinion this isn’t much better than most macros.
