Good bitter finish that does not last too long. Above average Pale Ale.

It is like a Belgian strong ale but with the Canadian touch. rodenbach99 (683), Longueuil, Quebec, Canada

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 15, 2008 500ml Can. Pours golden, well carbonated with a strong head: aromas of pine in the hops with orange, grass and a hint of sweet grapefruit. The flavour is more one dimensional: sweet with a hop kick, lemon, a bit of grass and the customary tin can metal flavour from the container. Mouthfeel is oily and not too thin considering the golden-transparent look. Head died down quickly. JRHBrew (218), Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 26, 2008 Well it’s about time NB Liquor got something in from south of the border that wasn’t swill. This 473ml can poured a golden colour with a thin lasting head. There is a nice floral almost garden aroma that lingers over the malt presence. The flavour is somewhat crippled by the minute toastiness which comes off at first like a stale taste and only presents itself somewhat properly mid-glass.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 20, 2008 Draught at Beer Bistro. Coppery color, with nice white head. Nice, well-balanced, and well-integrated hops. Hop makes itself known in a lingering finish. Fruity body keeps it sturdy. Silky mouthfeel. Notes from can: the sweetness of the grain is more apparent. mullet2007 (206), St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 19, 2008 Pours a remarkably clear deep golden to amber colour with a thick foamy white head. Nose is nice British smelling hops, with a hint of sweet caramel malts. Flavour is pleasantly bitter, but not really hoppy. It’s got some nice malts underneath, but the bitterness is what jumps out at you right away. It’s pretty well balanced really. It’d be a nice session ale. Carbonation is perhaps a bit sharp for an English pale ale, but it is fairly creamy. Nice beer. dwyerpg (2529), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 14, 2008 A nice light hop aroma. A pale citrus flavor. Some dryness in the finish. A bit thin but decent. Pretty good.
