1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
Amber colour; light, with just a touch of malt. Exceedingly bland.

starts sticky malty thin, and then drying finish and aftertaste. I have had worse macros, but this is a slightly more amber looking pale lager.

Sweet, and not very hoppy its not as heavy Pretty average.
1.1 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20
Bottle (341ml, clear). *My bottle says "Brick Amber", which I cannot find on the site, so I’m putting the rating here* Poured a plae gold, big fast-dropping white foamy head. Aroma - skunk! I can’t smell anything else, wow that’s bad, but I’m rating it because they are stupid enough to use clear bottles. Tastes skunky, but also sweet malt, stale grains. Weak mouthfeel. Guh.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
(Bottle) Pours a light head and golden body. Average run-of-the-mill beer because it doesn't have the ball to be "all that it can be".
2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 7/20
Faint malt aroma, amber, almost no head. Indistinct flavour, some adjunt. Thin. Yawn.
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 8/20
Deep gold color. Very bland with some type of "off " taste the description of which exceeds my grasp
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle at the Rhino. Medium yellow, very small white head, a few streaming bubbles. Sweet malt, grainy aroma - not terribly pleasant. Sweet malt taste but incredibly light body. Weird grainy taste. Not very good - very thin - but there is some flavour.
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
UPDATED: AUG 9, 2004 Sampled at the Toronto Festival Of Beer 2004. Aside from the slightly darker colour, it is basically indistinguishable from most of the other beers in the Brick line-up - which is to say it is a below-average macro-wannabe lager.
1.6 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
bottle. LCBO singles bin. pale golden-copper body with a large white head that shortly diminishes into a small ring. pungent aroma, oh this should be a treat. light butterscotch notes. the flavour isn’t quite as offensive as the aroma suggests - though there really isn’t anything interesting to say. soft carbonation, sweet honey and caramel. not completely awful.
