2013-06-14. Hazy golden orange body modest beige head. 3+ Lightly grassy bitterness up front, moderate caramel malt, biscuity touches, light yeast. 6+ Aroma is lightly fruity and tangy, light yeast and malt. 6+ Average plus body is pretty carbonated. Okay. Probably would have been a point or two higher if I had tried this before the much hoppier American Red. On tap at 3 Brewers, Toronto, as "Spring Fling"

Enjoyed at the Ottawa brewpub with PaleAleRider. Pours a clean amber colour with a creamy light-beige head and lacing. Beautiful perfumy nose with orange notes and grain eventually comes out. Spices also appear after breathing. Fruity malt taste with hints of bubblegum and very tame hops. Quite refreshing and interesting, different seasonal spring beer, with lots of fruits and perfumes. A lovely brew that makes the winter chills go away, and welcome the sun.

Ronde mais fade, subtile amertume, rien à offrir.. Le supplice est enfin terminé.

On tap at restaurant. Opaque strawish with a nice white head. Taste was moderately yeasty, some pale malts and a touch of hops. Really, not much to say about it.

on tap at quebec city brewpub. clear bright golden with a decent off-white head, some retention and lacing. very spicy, yeasty, hint of vanilla, toasted but slightly sugary malts - overall belgiumness. prickly carbonation, light body - oily, light warming alcohol, decent herbal-spicy finish. o-k.

Dégustée en fût sur place à l’établissement du quartier Dix30 à Brossard. De couleur ambrée-dorée et légèrement voilée. Nez de grains de malt pâle, léger de fruits (agrumes) avec des notes de pain, de caramel et de houblon herbeux. Léger goût de levures fruitées (agrumes) aux faibles traces épicées lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de grains de malt pâle sucrés avec un léger goût de pain et quelques notes de caramel puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume aux notes asséchantes de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé). Post-goût moyen-court et aux très faibles notes sèches, légèrement amer de houblon herbeux avec des notes fruitées (zeste d’agrumes). (1er avril 2012)

June 20, 2012 - on draught at 3 Brewers Toronto. Very clear not bubbly slightly amber-tinged gold, small but lasting creamy-fizzy off-white head. Smells ... like a very watered down saison; sweet, sort of spicy, some alcohol. Taste is very bland indeed, like a papery watered-down saison - dull. Average body, low carbonation, slightly grassy/bitter in the quick finish. Bloody dull.

Draught at the brewpub, Toronto. As "Spring Fling". Pours a clear copper-gold with an average size diminishing frothy white head. O.K. lacing on the glass. Mild, slightly sweet aroma of grain, the always noticeable 3 Brewers yeast and a good amount of fruit. Flavour, also mild, of grain, fruit, very light hops, yeast and a touch of sugary sweetness. Alcohol is well hidden. Average bodied. Nothing bad about this but it is a bit dull, it’s O.K.

draught@brewpub, Montreal Ste-Catherine - clean amber beer with no head retention; light notes of tea and caramel; sticky and medium-bodied; low carbonation and gently bitter; long aftertaste of caramel and solvent - not convincing
