| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 11, 2008 355mL bottle from the LCBO. So the award for least sensical thing I’ve ever read on a beer label goes to.....this beer, for the "Inspired ales, meant for drinking, not posing" line! Congrats! (wtf?)(and what the hell do they mean by ’Anti-Gravity Light’?) Anyways, the aroma on this one had me shuddering with memories of this brewery’s flagship beer which will go unmentioned, but is known for being somewhat of a corn orgy to the mouth. That horrible house corn aspect that really is unpleasant. But the flavour actually surprised me. There’s real malts in here! A touch of toffee, that’s all really, not a lot of distinction, but I’m pretty sure the lack of corn on the cobness really works to this one’s advantage! Very light and spritzy feeling, but not in an obnoxious way. This is actually far better than I was worried it might be. matt7215 (966), Cambridge, Ontario, Canada
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 7, 2008 341 ml bottle from the LCBO breakers bin. pours very pale with a fizzy white head and huge carbonation bubbles. aromas are vauge fruit malts with some hay. nice flavour although its quite thin. light fruity malts and a crisp hoppy finish. pretty good stuff for a 4% golden/blond ale. id drink this again and i might even buy it for hot summer days. for a light beer it has a good amount of flavour and you could drink buckets of it.

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Aug 26, 2008 Light golden colour with white head. Weak malty aroma with a bit of breadiness. Sweet malt flavour and a little hoppy.. fizz fizz pop pop.... Okay body. pootzboy (1048), Hawgville, Ontario, Canada
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 23, 2008 Updated: Oct 21, 2008Bottle from LCBO.
Poured a light straw color with a decent white cap that didn’t hang around long..weak lacing on the glass.
Nice grainy-biscuit dough aroma (very pronounced) bit of sweetness and straw ,little else...one dimensional aroma.
Two dimensional taste with pale malts outpacing the thin northern brewer hops...light fast finish light biscuit aftertaste.
Not a bad all natural brew and well made...approachable, fresh tasting, malty but uninspired and 2 dimensional....I’d buy this if it was a buk-a-beer brew but at this price there are better more inspired micro ales.
