JadoreBlanche (114), London, Ontario, Canada Jun 6, 2005 Poured at light coloured golden body with a good white head. Aromas of citrus and slight hops. Taste is slightly hoppy that brings a nice slight bitterness as well. Very smooth and creamy. Nice and light on the palate, refreshing, one of my favorites to have when I just need to relax and have a beer!
Skidds (214), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Dec 2, 2008 12pack from beer store. The staff members were back there for almost 5min looking for the one they had left. Finally arrived very dusty. Has quite a floral aroma with some malt and grassy notes. Flavour about the same. Very smooth pleasant taste. AWS9 (137), Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Nov 28, 2008 Bottle. Gold. Malty, grassy nose. A little thin, but a nice combo of hops and sweet malt, with a hint of vegetables. Pretty solid and a little more interesting than your average cream ale. Blasphemies (45), Ontario, Canada May 27, 2008 bottle: goldy colour. didn’t get much of an aroma to type of. Sweet malty taste, perhaps some hops. Seemed thin. blankboy (2687), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 12, 2008 <i>Bottle at The Esplanade Bier Mrkt.</i> Pours a clear pale gold with a small diminishing white head. Aroma’s sweet, a touch vegetal (I think, there’s something odd here, like a vegetal yeasty sour thing going on -- best I can explain it) along with some fruit and light hops. Flavour of sweet malt, grain, fruit and light floral hops. A bit vegetal again. Light bitter finish. Average bodied. For a Cream Ale, a style that’s rarely any good, this is alright, I still don’t much care for it though. Slacks (360), Bolton, Ontario, Canada Mar 8, 2008 <i>355ml Bottle</i>: Pours a very vibrant gold colour, started off with some foamy white head and quickly dissipated. Slightly sour malt aroma, bit of grass, milk, bread; not bad, interesting. Flavour is mild with decent bittering and floral hops with fruity melon and peach notes, alongside a very muted sweetness. Pretty good, but mine had an unfortunate metallic taste that I’m sure is just an off-batch and not part of the recipe. I’d like to try one on draught to compare.
