650 ml bottle from Sherbrooke Liquor (Edmonton), served cool in a wine glass. JN 09/08.
App.: Clear golden with remnants of a white head.
Aroma: Apricots, grains and cereal, some light caramel and golden syrup, other vague fruitiness, smells sweet.
Palate: Medium+ body, moderate effervescence.
Flav.: Much like the nose – apricots, non-descript fruits, light caramel and golden syrup, sweet flavours without a really sweet taste; off-dry to semi-sweet, not even a hint of bitterness, leaves a touch of floral honey.
Boring.

Jan 27, 2008 Bomber courtesy of CBA. Pours out highly filtered golden colour with minor head and lacing. Nose- honey sweetness and cooked vegetables. Taste- smooth, a little nutty and the creaminess of the mouthfeel is very much there. Metallic finish and that cooked vegetable again. Drinkability is high- good session brew.

Jan 13, 2008 [997-20071223] 650mL (w/ GregClow, jerc). Smells like sheep lanolin or wet wool, skunky wheat and a hint of peas. Clear, orange amber body with a quick foamy off-white head. Sweet honeyed grain flavour. Medium body is grainy and watered down. Not impressive.

Dec 25, 2007 (650ml bottle) Purchased at the Gorge BCLS for $4.35. Pours a medium, frothy white head with a clear yellow body. Nose is very grainy with a corn malt base. Flavour has some wet wheat and soap water undertones. Its weak and undefinable. I wish they stocked more quality BC-micros on the shelf than this waste-water.

Dec 24, 2007 Bottle shared with jerc & mabel - their bottle. Pale gold with no head. Aroma of grainy malt and wet wool, with a faint vegetal quality. Thin body. Watery flavour, with faint sweet and grainy malt and no hops to speak of. Nope, not liking this much at all...
