Light and corn-tasting.

Decent for its style, this is a good example of what the macros call premium. A bit more colour than pale, a bit more malt flavour than just some malts, a bit more carbonation than fizzy. As John Sleeman’s staff called it, Unibroue and other crat beers are "super premium" well bring on the superhero stuff. Thnks Pootz for the sampler.

UPDATED: OCT 7, 2003 Pale yellow brew with a bit of hops in it compared to other macros, but pretty light by my standards. Tapped a keg in the dark at the ex-gf's kegger.

Buttery aroma with floral and fruity notes that are not very characteristic for a lager. Clear golden body topped by a decent white head that recedes slowly to cover. Butter is apparent in the flavour along with some underlying maltiness and light bitterness. Light body is on the watery side with moderate carbonation. Sampled on tap at the Walper Hotel in Kitchener.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Draught at Milestone’s as "Palomino Lager". Pours like a typical Ontario Pale Lager: light yellow-gold, a few bubbles and a small diminishing white head. Yawn. Aroma and flavour of grain, light hops, some fruit, corn, a hint of cardboard and malt backing it up. Very light bitter finish. Light bodied. Nothing overly bad, just very boring.

Another pleasant surprise! I was ready to write this one off-- clear bottle, pale (almost lemony) yellow colour. But there is a generous amount od European "skunky" hop aroma and character, as well as a noticable malt component. Finish is dry, boxboard. Better than I expected.

Another boring lager. Pours a large white head and a straw body. Rather bland flavour with slight malt. Somewhat watery...
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Nice sweet aroma, golden, with a big fluffy head. Good hops and malt balance. Ample carbonation, and a pleasant bite. Fairly good.
