Raphael__N (162), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Oct 29, 2006 Not bad, not bad at all. Red pint as the name declares. Once again, another one of those "drunk" beers. From tap of a local pool/bar. I wasn’t as focused on the flavour, but I was happy that it was going down easy. Tasted like barley and burnt hops. Beats drinking a macro.
mabel (1673), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jul 10, 2007 [405-20070707] Tap @ Le Bifteque (Toronto, ON). Yeasty grainy aroma has a hint of floral sweetness. Clear, bright red body with a medium-lasting bubbly white head. Grainy yeast flavour holds same hint of sweetness. Medium body is fairly smooth. Like Rickard’s only smoother and refreshing, best chilled. Nekronos (1953), Xalapa, Mexico Apr 2, 2007 Refreshing, I needed a good Canadian beer, and this one reminds me my previous visit. It is like a Brittish ale but with the Canadian peculiar flavour. I like it and good foam. Sammy (3146), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 28, 2006 Above average for this macrobrewery. Some pronounced bitterness and average malt character. Amberish with lasting white head. Not a bad drinkability, drying aftertaste. shintriad (697), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jul 13, 2006 Druaght. Not much in the way of smell: a bit of malt and breadiness. Same goes for the flavour, which is multilayered (citrus, bread, caramel malts), none of which melds together in a synergistic way, nor are any of them particularly "good." Better than some macros, but still with that factory-made taste we all know and hate.
