2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pint on tap a while ago at Original Joe’s in Edmonton pours a pale golden color with a small white head that disappears quickly and leaves no lacing behind. Aroma is light grains and grass. Light bodied with typical carbonation for the style. Not too appealing and not recommended.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
On tap, Original Joe’s Medicine Hat. Not sure how this is considered an ale in this database when it is actually called a lager... but whatever. Medium golden with a thin white head that is gone within 5 minutes (same as the amber-- headless beers). Aroma and flavour are sweet grains, with just a hint of toast. Not bad, but I liked the pils much more.
0.7 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
Drinkable only as it’s on tap. Boring, palateless and fizzy. A regular, rubbish beer, reminiscent of other more popular beers.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
about as boring and uninteresting as a beer can get. Flavourless, no aroma. Beer flavoured water.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Slightly darker than the Original Joe’s pilsener, and a bit sweeter, too, but it tastes kind of cheap and watered down overall, but better than some of their other beers.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Golden colour, not much head. Not much aroma. A bit of sweet bready flavour but overall not very good.
