Clear golden colour. Muted aroma but there is a yeasty/banana and a hint of esters in the aroma that is strange. There is some bite in the palate and a slight leafy hop note and a yeasty flavour. I find this one different but drinkable.

Draft @ Syndicate, Niagara Falls .. . i quite liked this .. good solid mouth .. sweet hay .. . medium finish .. a mild beer but enjoyable .. But in his defense, that ring was kind of asking for it.

On tap at Tap’s on Queen. Little white head, poured pale gold. Citrus and banana aromas. Strong banana flavour. Easy drinking.

341 ml bottle from The Beer Store. Pours a lightly hazy golden orange with small white head. Aroma is grains and a little fruit. Flavour is also quite grainy with some slightly sourish fruit. Slightly lifeless feel to it. All in all a little dull but by no means is it terrible.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
341ml bottle from Syndicate brew pub. light hazy orange/blonde thin creamy quickly dissipating white head. biscuit malt aroma some corn and some floral hops. somewhat sweet. I’ve had this a number of times. On good days (perhaps when it’s fresher?) I’d give it a three. On a bad day it tastes almost infected (0.5) and today it’s just boring. Better than the macros but i think it has an unusual yeast / sour flavour to it. Niagara’s best/Taps have done much better than this...
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle - 341ml. Pale blond body with a very thin white foamy head. Thin malty/hoppy aroma with some grainy hints. Taste is slightly dominated by hoppiness. Ends with a short bitter/herbal finish. Nothing to get excited about.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draught at "The Winking Judge" Hamilton. Pours a cloudy gold colour with a little white head. Not much scent to it. Taste is a little hoppy. Pretty run of the mill.
2.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Very little aroma -- faint hops. Cloudy, golden appearance, no head. Gets a little more distinguished in the mouth: burnt yeast dominates yet is still toned down. Well balanced. Heavy and smooth.
Unremarkable except for the particular yeasty flavour that is rare in Ontario.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
355ml bottle. pours gold with lots of sediment. Did I get a strange bottle? Aroma is grains and some light fruit. Taste is standard stuff, although I got a little bit of strawberry taste, not sure if I was imagining it. Overall very drinkable, but nothing I would actively search for.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
bottle. Poured clear amber with a thin head. Light malty aroma. Medium-light mouthfeel, creamy texture. Vegetal hop flavour with low caramel malt notes. Finish is sticky and tart.
