3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Lightly spicy and grassy hops over a touch of corn in the nose. Clear yellow straw coloured body is topped by a low white fine bubbled and fizzy head that recedes rapidly to ring. Corn character is pleasant in the flavour without overwhelming. Spicy hop notes and light bitterness keep the sweetness in check. Perhaps a touch of sulfur in the aftertaste. Light body with fairly strong prickly carbonation. Sampled on tap at the brewpub.

Darker golden color with a hoppy aroma. Fair bit of hop in this one, mild bitterness and a lingering hop aroma.

3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Sampled at the pub in Whistler. Typical light golden colour with thin white head. Aroma is very promising with crisp hop notes, light yeast. Taste is extremely crisp and satisfying with lingering Euro hop notes and no adjuncts. Finishes well. A very good take on a very common style. Micro small batch beer at its finest. Liked it despite not loving the style.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Earth and wood everywhere. Nose and mouth dominated by it. Not entirely a bad thing as it was suttle not overpowering. Not oak per say, but almost plywood. The earth scent was warm forest like. Mouth feel was a touch watery and the finish was eerily silent. Decent enough but not outstanding.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bright golden with a chalk-white foamy cap. Sweet grainy aroma and palate with low grassy hop character and low bitterness in the finish. A clean and easy-drinking lager.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft at the brewpub. Menu says 4.5% ABV, 10 IBU’s. Poured a clear gold color with a white head that left some lace behind on the glass. Smelled of pale malt and hay. Light to medium bodied with fresh cereal grain, grass, and subdued pine flavors. I also got an occasional hint of pineapple. Pretty standard.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap at the brewpub. One-eighth f an inch of head. Light yellow coloured body with rising carbonation bubbles present. Saaz hops used, carbonation is right there, a little acidic but also a little lemony notes. So-so drinkability.A tad below average mouthfeel.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Draught at the brewpub, 10 IBU, 5% ABV
Pale blond color. Despite not being bold, it has some character and crispy touch. Well, among the Lagers it is quite pleasant.

The brewery was rightly proud of this beer (it's the only beer of theirs mentioned on their t-shirts). It has some bitterness and is lagered for six whole weeks - according to the brewpub's menu. (Query: shouldn't that be more like 12 weeks for a good lager???) Anyhoo, I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of flavor present.
