on tap at the pub. Clear golden pour. Aroma of hops, and some biscuity malts. Flavor is more of the same, but its realy quite hoppy for a lager. I enjoyed it.

Originally rated October 2006. Sampled at the pub itself. Poured a clean gold colour with a head that left nice lacing and a ring that stayed a while. Unfortunately, the carbonation did not stay, and the beer become flat. Nice perfume nose with grain and some saaz hop. Good start with the grain and hop, with a clean cereal finish and a flowery aftertaste. Very refreshing, great tasting for a house pils-lager and easy to drink.

Verre de 12 oz, au Saint-Pub. Arômes de céréales et de houblon floral. Robe blonde pâle, effervescence moyenne. Assez délicate en bouche, des céréales légèrement sucrées sont accompagnées par un discret houblon floral. Finale peu amère. Simple et rafraîchissant!

Sampled at the new brewery. The tasting room is not really open and the keg had been tapped a while ago for the staff. I would not rate it if I had thought that it suffered. Golden with white head. Grainy aroma. Grainy soft body. Clean lager. I’d drink it too if I worked there.

En fut au St. Pub. Excellente lager très rafraichissante. Belle couleur blonde, rien d’ extraordinaire en bouche juste du bon malt...Ben correct.

A blond lager with a thin lacing white head. A grainy malt aroma with light herbal hops. In mouth, grainy crisp malt, with biscuity notes, an almost oily hop resin, metallic notes in final. An interesting lager. On tap at Brouhaha, May 2008.

On tap at the Brouhaha, slightly honey gold hue, with a frothy white head, leaving laces, toasty, honeyed pale malt, spicy vanilla nose, with a grainy, buttery, toffeeish accent, and a faint floral hop fruity aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, sweet mild honeyed pale malt character, with a buttery, vanillaish mouthfeel, a mild flowery hop, pears fruitiness, leading towards a crisp malty, lingering bitterness finish.

In short: Superior lager. Rich, filling and well balanced.
How: Tap at BrouHaHa
The look: Almost clear blonde body with a medium white head leaving good lacing
In long: Rich chewy body with a whole lot of yeast, straws and cereals. A lemony meringue sensation. A dry herbal finish achieves a perfect balance. Rather tasty for the style and extremely satisfying. 1 litter mugs should be the minimum serving size. I don’t know what the previous reviewers but as of this writing this excellent beer averages a whooping 2.39!!! I feel like Ebert and Roeper giving two thumbs up to Freddy Got Fingered.

En fût. Verre de dégustation au Saint-Pub (Baie-St-Paul, QC). Arôme: Légère odeur fruité. Apparence: La couleur est blonde pâle avec une très faible densité de bulle. Présence d’un moyen col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût d’houblons fruités et de malt. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est mince avec une texture huileuse. Faible effervescence en bouche. Présence de malt en arrière goût. (Rating #1302)

Bu au St-Pub, en fut (12 oz). Blonde claire, mice collet avec un peu de dentelle. Arome de siros de maïs, un peu malté, rien de spécial. Goût de lager commercial typique, pas mal maïs et malte simplistique. Bière de touriste!
