Eructoblaster (1275), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Jul 14, 2008 On tap at Pub Italia (Ottawa). Dark gold body with low carbonation and a thin white foamy/creamy head. Thin malty/hoppy aroma that lacks both strength and complexity. Malty taste lacks balance and is one-dimensioned. Ends with a short malty finish. Boring.
MrManning (1458), London, Ontario, Canada Feb 20, 2008 On tap at Pub Italia- Pours deep amber with a frothy beige cap. Fruity malt aroma with yeasty esters, bubblegum, a bit of cotton candy. This is a fairly flavourful interpretation of the style. Its sweeter than I expected. Quite fruity with sweet bready, dough. Yeasty and sweet candy and bubble gum once more. There’s just a hint of smoke on the finish. Quite good for sessions. I enjoyed it. KnN (350), Greenbelt, Maryland, USA Feb 18, 2008 Satan’s Killer Red at Pub Italia:
This was a nice change of pace after a few Belgians. Had a crisp nutty quality. Poured a nice amber/red color with very little head.
Nothing to write home about, but a perfectly fine beer. Probably better on a hot day when the beer is nice and cold. TheJester (510), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Feb 3, 2007 Two pints at the Pizza Factory. More amber than red, no head. Smells grainy/grassy, with a bit of brown sugar - like draught. Well carbonated. Taste isn’t bad - better than Rickard’s or Old Mick’s. Malt, brown sugar, and enough hops to give it a decent finish. I’ll have it again. radiomgb (1781), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Jan 27, 2007 Amber in colour with a rather long lasting off white head, some lacing. The aroma is faintly of pale malts, some grains, lightly fruity. The flavour is light, some light caramel malts, floral and fruity. Light mouthfeel, light body, medium carbonation. Finishes quick, mildly bitter. Bland, they gotta stop using the Northumberland as their base beer.
