does not count catsgame (4), toronto, Ontario, Canada Jul 11, 2007 on tap at lion’s head inn, lion’s head ontario.
nice golden colour. good carbonation. syrupy sweet with no complex aroma or taste. maybe a little malty. goes down smooth on a hot day.
mabel (1673), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 11, 2008 [1503-20080628] Tap. Grainy malt aroma. Clear, orange brown body with a medium-lasting foamy off-white head. Grainy banana flavour has some toasted bread. Medium body is a little astringent. Drinkable, plus the setting helps.
(@ Bootlegger’s Cove, Big Tub; Tobermory, ON) crushinat0r (226), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jan 25, 2008 Pours with some crazy bubbly white head. Dissipates quickly, but wow. Unexpected. Slightly hazy and yellow. Sweet a little hoppy, wheaty and a bit of corn meal. Tastes like a wit, wheaty, grassy with a hint of citrus. Surprisingly complex. shintriad (697), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 19, 2007 Slow carbonation, hazy and cloudy, pale yellow gold body. Scent: apples, grass, noble hops. Surprisingly bitter, fresh and tart, very little aftertaste, some citrus and musk. As with a lot of Neustadt products, has a watery body. However, good lacing and great for the pale lager category. Kind of numbing, for some reason. This is the second "Bruce" beer I rated today. No, I wasn’t at a gay bar. VeloVampire (400), Parkdale, Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 2, 2007 341 ml bottle, courtesy of StompBrockmore - pours a very pale straw colour with a decent sized white head. Aroma very faint, sweetly malty with some light fruit, that’s about it. Flavour much the same, though there is a (faint) hop bitterness in the finish. Neustadt’s far superior regular lager crushes this bland though inoffensive mass-market thirst quencher.
