2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Modest head, copper-brown body with medium carbonation. Aroma of malt, nuts, wood. Flavour is a good mix between malt and citrus notes. Decent balance, slightly wet finish. Just all right, and one big problem - it’s lacking the "creaminess" I’d expect from something that calls itself a cream ale. Eh?
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Appearance: Transparent orange brown, small beige head. Aroma: vanilla, hops, banana, dough. Not bad. Palate: medium bodied, smooth with a very dry finish. High carbonation. Taste: fairly bitter. nice hints of vanilla and banana. Not bad, but not great.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Can at a friends - Have had many times beofre but never rated it. Hazy light amber with a thumbs worth of head. A bit of malt in the nose - fairly fresh. Not a ton happening taste wise either - Subtle maltiness and a slight bit of citrus hopping. Very easy to drink. At best a gateway beer or one to go for if there’s only Hop City or Macro beer being offered.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: JUL 3, 2011 Canette 473ml. De couleur ambrée-dorée et claire. Nez de grains de malt aux petites notes rôties, léger de caramel et de houblon herbeux (herbes mouillées) avec des notes fruitées (agrumes, traces d’abricots) et des traces de biscuits. Moyenne-mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture très légèrement crémeuse et aux notes huileuses. Notes fruitées (agrumes) avec de faibles traces de beurre lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de grains de malt frais et aux petites notes rôties, léger de caramel avec des traces de biscuits au miel puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume de houblon herbeux (herbes fraîches et mouillées) et aux faibles notes citriques asséchantes. Post-goût moyen et aux faibles notes sèches, légèrement amer de houblon herbeux avec des traces de rôti.

Cask at the Arrow & Loon’s first Cask Festival. Not much to it - more like a macro then a micro. Bronze amber with no head. Bit of malt and hops but meh. Not worth trying.

On tap at the Marriott in muskoka. Not a huge fan of cream ales, but was nice after a round of golf
