omhper (9937), Stockholm, Sweden Feb 24, 2002 Creamy, soft maltiness, balanced bitterness. Complex.
Oakes (6776), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Nov 22, 2000 Updated: Nov 9, 2003Amber colour. Fresh, fruity hop aroma. Toasted grains in the flavour underpin more flowery, fruity hops. Sweet and dry at the same time. argo0 (6004), Washington DC, USA Aug 10, 2003 (WCC2003): Clear amber with small off-white head. Aroma is apple, light grassy. Taste is light apple at the start, then turns grassy mid-body and stays that way through to the swallow. Light/medium body, some crispness. Rastacouere (5189), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Oct 8, 2003 Outstanding looks. Amber, clear, extremely carbonated, medium rocky head that lasts very long and sticks the glass. Malty nose, lightly hoppy with flowers and earthy notes. Basically a very pleasant aroma. Very smooth mouthfeel, malty, salty even, it all heads toward a hoppy bitterness finish. The finish has an unpleasant feel though, almost paperish, slightly bitter and cerealic. The flavor development is not as balanced and easy-going than in a bitburger or czechvar. Certainly a good canadian product, but not as robust or complex as expected. Bov (4559), Bienne, Switzerland Jan 7, 2001 light amber colour, fine hop aroma, crisp, slightly nutty aroma, dry
