Jun 1, 2009 Bottle thanks to Matt7215. Pours a nice amber gold with thick white head. Aroma strong of malt, slight hops, caramel, and wheat. I am finding that so far, every Grand River brew has this slight wheat taste with wheat finish. Very refreshing. Enjoyable, just not quite as smooth as I was hoping for.

Mar 31, 2009 Much as the commercial description states; "a beer style that was popular in the region in the late 1800’s", this is what lager should and probably used to taste like around here. A nice session beer with ample flavour from both the hops and malt in a lager. Good to great.

Nov 30, 2008 500 ml bottle. Pours a clear deep gold with virtually no head. Aroma balances caramel malt with floral hops. Taste is sweet and malty, fairly bready. Real bitterness and dryness in the finish. A fairly impressive offering.

Nov 29, 2008 Pours a hazy golden yellow with a thin sticky white head. Aroma is light, and mostly bready. The flavour starts out very grainy with a slight touch of honey in the middle which is quickly dominated by a very citrus grapefruit rind flavour. Soapy finish.

Nov 27, 2008 Updated: Apr 4, 2009On tap at the Woolwich Arms in Guelph The aroma was mild caramel and hops
Pours a pal;e amber with a good size head and lacing
The taste was pretty hop[py and bitter
and i am unsure whether the keg was old or not so this one will need to be revisited at some point
Rerate on a bottle at Chancy Smiths in London Much better than the on tap at the woolie
