Mill Street Original Organic Lager

222mL bottle from the OCB discorvery pack one. Unlike many, I actually liked the aroma (like sweet straw in an apple orchard). I could do without the head though (which does not lace at all). I appreciated the long sweet finish (with a touch of bitterness).

Stubby courtesy of matt7215. Pours gold with a thin white head. Smells of perfume, some caramel. Tastes of lemons and dry malt with a crisp finish.

Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival 2007. A light golden beer with a lazing white head. The aroma is sweet, but also with a light skunky note - is it the clear bottle or the hops? THe flavor is sweet malty combined with notes of straw, but also hints of skunkyness.

I tried this beer on April 30, 2008 after purchasing an assorted 6 pack of Ontario Craft Brews from one of my local LCBO outlets. The beer poured a translucent gold colour with a generous white head which settled down immediately. Tons of effervescence. The smell was very very sour. Almost a turn off. The mouthfeel was light to medium bodied, lots of carbonation. The flavour was a ton of grain with a little bit of hops. Not a beer I would try again.

222ml bottle; doesn’t Corona come in bottles like these? Nose of grain and light grassiness; yellow with a medium white head; flavor has light, lemony hop bitterness along with the grainy malt; better than i expected of a plae lager; actual hops!

Bottle. Pale yellow under a medium lasting head. Vigorous carbonation. Faint aroma of grassy hops. Tastes buttery and sweet but not much else. Thin and clean. An quaffable green beer.

I was kind of sad opening up the box and finding out the bottles are only 222ml. Has a bit of a sun bitten smell to it however ever it tasted fresh and crisp. This would be a mighty fine beer on patio on a hot summer day. Not very complex taste but it has its own character so ill give it that. I must say it is a tad like having sex in a canoe and I think you know what im getting at.

With 2/3-sized bottles and lower alcohol content, this beer is obviously designed to be a quick refresher. Clear glass bottle and lifeless pale-yellow body hint this could be a Mexican-inspired brew, but the pleasant skunk and high-hop nose shows more pizzazz than its southern bottom-fermented counterpart. Thirst-quenching and palate-cleansing, this lager is a quickie in more ways than one: not only is it gone in a couple gulps, but the slightly sweet/slightly bitter flavour doesn’t hang around long either.
