yarry (329), Waterdown, Ontario, Canada Apr 28, 2008 473ml can, 5% a/v
Pours a fiery copper colour, with a middling tan head. The aroma is malt, dark sugar and hops. The taste is a bit metallic, fairly sweet and unrefined with very little hops to balance it. Creamy mouthfeel and a bit of an unpleasent aftertaste. All the problems are minor so its not a bad beer but it could be much much better. The_Jester (426), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Mar 30, 2008 473 mL can. Copper-orange with a small but persistent head. Aroma of malt, brown sugar, a little hops, and tin. The flavour is decent for a lager, but quite sweet. The hops are there, but not enough. A bit of grainy bitterness at the end. Creamy. Medium to thin body. Nicely carbonated. A decent lager. Illuminatus (76), Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada Mar 25, 2008 473mL can from the LCBO. Pours an appealing orange/amber, with a one-finger white head. Lacking in aroma, mostly thin malt. Decent mouthfeel, not overcarbonated. Sweet malt, a slight fruit note, lightly hopped. A good lager. matt7215 (401), Cambridge, Ontario, Canada Mar 13, 2008 473 ml can from the lcbo. pours a nice amber with a short lived pure white head and lotsa carbonation (3+). aromas of some floral hops with some light sweet malts. flavours are well balanced and subtle. light sweetness before a touch of hops and creamy long finish. if i drank lagers this would be a go to brew for sure. very well done neustadt. Immy (1397), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA Mar 3, 2008 473ml can from MrManning - thanks Len! Dark orange-gold with a small white head. Nose is sweet honey and fruit over grain. Flavor is more of the same. Not bad, but the Creemore I had before it flogs it like a rented mule.
