Creemore Springs Premium Lager

Tallboy can. Thin head, and translucent orange/amber in colour. Aroma of malt and sweet fruit. Fairly heavily carbonated. Grabs the palate immediately. Flavours of malt, citrus fade into a slightly bitter finish. Good beer, but I like it better on tap at the Pig’s Ear.

second re-tasting post Molson take over: Still without a doubt one of the better all malt lagers I’ve tasted and certainly still among the best in Ontario but no longer "super premium"....it has definately suffered "dumbing down" in the flavor profile since Molson’s bought it and I am readjusting my scoring accordingly.... 500ml bottles are gone and it now comes in a high tech 1/2 liter can. Plain looking labeling, no freshness date or lot code. ... Pours a golden-orange, high effervescence in the pour leaves a smallish chunky cap that leaves within a couple of swallows and forms a nice lace and ring. A fairly well pronounced grainy nose with a slight floral aroma....gone is the toasty-sweet imported malt tones! Sharp ale-like bite at the front but then the grainy-bready tastes balance the citrus hopped taste with a medium body that produces a sandy mouth feel then the finish is crisp medium dry with the bready after taste somewhat deminished from the Pre-Molson days. Still a good brew....an all grain/malt amber lager with some ale traits....ale-like in "bite" like a steam beer. Very well balanced but the last few months the malt profile seems to be a bit flat....like cheaper, paler,lesser quality domestic malts have been substituted for the imported grains used in the original recipe. ...and YES, Molson has’nt changed the formula....but they are using a different ( cheaper?) flat tasting malt.>>>This is sad because I liked this beer and have bought it for years but there are several better premium micro lagers with richer import malts and fresher taste these days.

Have to say this beer tastes great from the can, contrary to what some say. The aroma is very distinct I can’t think of anything to describe it. Slightly sweet taste with a very slightly bitter and acidic after taste. This is definatly a great beer and would be good with dinner.

473 mL can: After reading the postings, i think i had a bad batch, or the dreaded can! Started off great with nice aroma & deep golden colour but what a thin, bitter after-taste. I did not get any of the sweetness or fruity hops noticed by others, only an acidic aftertaste. A disappointing pint, will try the tap or the bottle & give it the benefit of the doubt.

I belive thisis a top 5 beer in Canada. The best way to ejoy creemore is on tap. Bottle is good, but stay away from the new cans.

500ml screw cap from good ol’ MrManning! Clear, solid gold, medium white head. Sweetly malty, some breadiness and a touch of funk. Lightly hopped. Pretty decent.

Not the finest beer i have ever tried. Had to choke it down at the Bywater in Downtown Toronto

My boyfriends fav beer. too much flavour for me I prefer something more like kieths.
