Je l’aimais cette bière, mais je la trouve amère et fade. Un petit peu de saveur, mais forcent à boire.

Sammy (5888) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 6, 2006
Like a lager, easy drink and mouthfeel. Serviceable beer, better than a macro. Pale lagercolour,residual bit of yeast on top, no head to speak of. nothing in aroma, in fact a negative. . Was there a hop? No but metallic rather than a nice bitter finish.

radiomgb (2078) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 2, 2006
Can from the <a href=http://www.lcbo.com target=blank>LCBO in Peterborough. Copper in colour, cascade effect creamy lasting white head, lingering lace. That aroma was quite soft and light, some cream, light floral hops, some caramel malts. The flavour was of light caramel, floral hops, some sweetness. Thin watery mouthfeel, light body, medium/light carbonation. Finishes light, watery, lingering medium bitterness.

Siroy (220) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - DEC 13, 2005
[Can/widget, Fresh, Chilled, with Daniel Bilodeau]

A what?! Bitter?? you’re kidding!

Orange/amber color. Typical ’widget’ layers - Lively head. Dry malt to the nose. cookies and fruits. soft long bitterness as a finish. A little boring.

Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - NOV 23, 2005
(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful deep amber with a frothy and very lively head. Very malty, lightly caramelish character, finely balanced by a harmonious bitterness. 050301

beaconstreet (811) - Washington DC, USA - NOV 20, 2005
Wonderland Ballroom, NW DC. Slightly spicy and something dry hopsy. A good round, but a half step away from being consistent enough to your palate to be called a session beer. It should mellow out a bit more--only a half step into ubiquity--so that you can appreciate conversation around you rather than being forced to think about the drink. Tap.
