<i>341 ml bottle as arandom single from LCBO, served cold in a tulip glass.</i><br /><br />
<b>App.</b>: Clear deep amber with a moderate tan head.
<b>Aroma</b>: Nuts and caramel, brown sugar, raisins, an odd vegetal note, a bit of meaty broth,
<b>Palate</b>: Medium+ body, moderate carbonation.
<b>Flav.</b>: A let down, cardboard a bit of ashen, austere malt, a touch of hops (I’m really digging here...), little else; dry finish with a touch of malt.<br /><br />
Maybe an old bottle, maybe a lousy beer.

Oct 26, 2008 Pours out of the bottle a reddish-copper colour with a very small off white head. Smells of caramel, apples and spice. Tastes of caramel, apples, a touch of spice, and that’s about it. Watery feel, pleasant but nothing great.

Oct 24, 2008 Bottle. Some Malt, caramel. Maybe a little thin. Unremarkable amber ale, but nothing offensive by any means, so pretty good.

Oct 22, 2008 A basic amber type ale. Moderately drinkable. Not one that I would go out of my way for.

Sep 7, 2008 Bottle: Amber. Aromas of sweet malt. Fruity with a toasty likeness...a hint of grapefruit and raisin. Watery; just a trifle dry. Unimaginative .

Aug 29, 2008 Draft in Waterton Lakes: Deep copper-amber hue with a decent head. Lively carbonation; smooth, easy-to-drink palate. Lightly roasted and toasted and grainy. Light bitterness and hint of sourness. Faint sweetness (toffee). Herbal bitterness. Like a Fat Tire Lite.
