COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A light, refreshing, thirst-quenching beer. This beer is straw colored and has a clean malty nose, good malt character throughout and a creamy, though dry finish.

On tap at the bistro. Light golden yellow with small head. Not very creamy but still drinkable. Not much else to it than that. Probably wouldn’t have again.

Very basic stuff. It was very malty, but it did have creamy aspects to it. It Smell like what you would expect but nothing special. It was drinkable. which is about it

Bottle from Better Bitters: Pour gives a golden lightly hazed ale with a frothy 2 finger white cap that stays a while then goes to a surface foam that laces the the glass well. Soft natural carbonation. Decent aroma; cereal, some apple-apricot, light grassiness. Light biscuit malt in front is joined with soft fruitiness and some light herbal bittering, fast crisp finish, no after taste. A mild cream ale with a pleasant drinkable character

on tap at the brewpub and mutiple bottles from nicklebrook. pours light gold with a white head. minimal carbonation makes it good for pounding. slight fruity malt character and very mild hopping. this brew is made for newbies to the craft world scene. passable at best.

blankboy (4287) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 9, 2009
Draught at ’2009 Golden Tap Awards’ at beerbistro. Pours a clear light-gold with a small diminishing white head. Aroma is buttery upfront (diacetyl?) followed by corn and malt. Flavour’s also buttery along with light hops, caramel malt and some fruitiness. Light bitter finish. Average bodied. Just O.K., it’s good for a Cream Ale but just an O.K. beer.

Beershine (4561) - The Sunshine State, Florida, USA - OCT 2, 2008
Clear golden, poured without much head but has a nice bright color. Some diacetyl in aroma and wet socks with not enough hops to back it up. Decent, soft carbonation. Husky flavors are pleasant and fresh. Very toasty, which doesn’t match the pale malt appearance. Not offensive, it’s actually quite nice and there is no cream soda artificiality anywhere.

HogTownHarry (4809) - Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, CANADA - AUG 28, 2008
Draught. At BeerBistro - 2008 Golden Tap Awards. Clear gold pour, average white head. Smells ... not great, like malt extract with floral/weedy bitterness. The taste - what a pleasant surprise - crisp, refreshing, with clover and delicate floral hops, hardly any overbearing graininess at all. Light bodied, crisp, gently sweet, dry and quick off the palate, this was actually close to the easiest-drinking beer of the day for me.
