micker (31), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Aug 4, 2006 A very refreshing pleasent summer beer. Very mild in taste dispute being 6% in alcohol. Has a slight hop betterness, with a slightly sour taste. Aftertaste is somewhat wooden, likely from the cask. A nice beer... to bad the rest of the beers don’t match up, the White Tail is worse than vitually any macros swill Quevillon (1518), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada Jul 15, 2006 Bu sur place (20 oz), en cask. Ambrée foncé, bon collet. Légé arome d’houblon un peu amère. Son goût est plus a,éere qu’houblonneuse. Passable. blankboy (3157), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jul 11, 2006 Cask at the brewpub. Pours a hazy dark copper with a small lasting off-white head. Very mild aroma of faint floral hops. Flavour’s hoppy and fruity with a hint of metal in the bitter aftertaste. Light bodied. I liked it but I found it just O.K. Sammy (3934), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 6, 2006 A nice brownish tinge with a head and a process of lace, however near watery with bitter and metallic taste, and significant malt in the finish. Its drinkable, but the formula works better on tap tupalev (2605), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Dec 31, 2005 On cask, at the brewpub. My hometown is 45 minutes away from here, and I am there often, and I just got out to this place this past week. Go figure. Anyway, the pub itself was fantastic, the food was good and the beer was solid for the most part. This was my first pint and I have to say it is far better than the numbers here would suggest. Very dark brown, with a creamy (sparkler?) off white head - looks great. Some malt and slight hops in subtle aroma. Creamy mouthfeel borders on thick. Nice traditional cask Bitter taste - malt, lots of fruit notes and some complimenting hops. The fruity finish is probably more flavourful than the first half. A pint of this compares very favourably to the best Ontario cask pints like those found at the granite or Durham. Nothing spectacular to get the numbers way up, but if lived in Kingston, this would be my cask ale session pint. Kudus to the BrewPub for this fine offering. DerWeg (748), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Nov 12, 2005 Updated: Dec 29, 2006Cask. Deep clear reddish brown with nice ring of head. Extremely fresh and tasty with nice texture. Flavor much stronger than aroma - a big, delicate middle of malt suggesting fruit, perhaps dark ripe cherries. Not offendingly earthy for me. Will drink again. DougShoemaker (2855), Toronto, Canada Sep 5, 2005 Cask.
Caramel and hops in the aroma, cloudy, dark amber, tiny cream head. Taste starts off with some strong hops, followed by muted malt. Typically smooth(cask) some sweetness. Fine. mds (2112), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jul 18, 2005 cask. hazy copper brown colour with a rich creamy head. floral hop aroma - mild soapiness. sweet creamy body with a mild bitterness. I enjoyed it.
