reebtogi (1528) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - NOV 2, 2011
500ml bottle listed at 4.7%ABV poured a bright golden color with a modest white head which leaves some nice lacing behind. Aromas of grain and some floral hops. Taste is light malty sweetness and light hoppy bitter finish. Light to medium body with generous carbonation leaving a nice tingle on the tongue. A really nice blonde ale.

Definite pineapple to this, the banana on the palate. Fruity, refreshing and thoroughly enjoyable ale.

Cask conditioned handpump Moon On The Square Northampton. A bright yellowy gold coloured beer with a white head and lacing. Actually looks lovely in the glass. However it tastes a bit stale and apply. A bit creamy in the mouth too. A British beer that looks this lovely really shouldn;t taste so crap.

Thanks to drabmuh for this bottle.. Served in a snifter. Pours a nice golden color with a white head and a bit of lacing on the way down. The nose is nice and gentle with a slight hoppy character and a nice amount of backing bread. Lightly malted with a sprinkling of hops, this is nice and mellow and works really well. Some floral and herbal characteristics linger throughout. Body is pretty light with good carbonation. Nice and drinkable; this was an enjoyable brew that I’d certainly have again.

The banana does nothing for me I’m afraid. Along with vanilla, too dominant in the flavour at the expense of hops or malt, and also a bit too smooth. Some citrus present. I seem to be quite below the grain on this one but I didn’t enjoy it much at all.

Lubiere (6707) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 28, 2010
A golden ale with a super thick frothy off white head. In aroma, light grassy malt with wild grasses. In mouth, a smooth sweetish malt, with faint signs of hops. light acidity, but overall, a light pleasant ale. Bieropholie import. BB 7-7-2009.

Citrusy. A bit sour. Pale yellow, slightly hazy. Yeast and basement aromas. Not too bad, but not very good either.
