mabel (1246), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Mar 31, 2008 [1092-20080211] Tap @ Lion brewpub (Waterloo, ON). Grainy yeast alcohol aroma. Clear, pale yellow body with a quick creamy white head. Grainy alcohol continues in flavour with a hint of evergreen. Medium body is a little rough. Average -- never thought I’d say this but the light is better than the lager here. MrManning (1415), London, Ontario, Canada Feb 11, 2008 On tap at the hotel- Pours a transparent amber, with a frothy white fizz. Faint aroms of grains and apple juice with a bit of perfume. Flavour profile is sweet fruit (apple, some pear) grainy, almost corn husky, some bready yeast. Watery finish. One of the less flavourful beers from this brewer. Sammy (2969), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Dec 23, 2006 At the brewpub. A bit of malt and yeast. Fresh, with some lace. Tiny head. Token bitterness, overcarbonated. Pale amber colour.Watery weak body. About average and signature for the brews at this brewpub. Easy to drink compared to a macro and reminicent of the beers I had at University.
pootzboy (855), Calgary/ Kitchener, Alberta, Canada Jun 12, 2006 Tapped a clear amber-glold with a 1 finger white cap...modest lace.
Very little aroma....just a light musty sweetness.
Medium light bodied. light malt spine. sandy-grainy mouthfeel.
Grainy/bready up front then this is balanced by a sour/musty/citrusy decernment from the hops and lager yeast. Finish is fast and clean with light bittering
A standard nondiescipt golden lager...a fair house lager but I wouldn’t drive very far to sample it.
jimmyh221 (157), Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, USA Apr 4, 2006 It was orange in color with no head at all. The taste was a bit skunky. Not my type of beer. It was not very enjoyable.
