COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Remarkably smooth for a full-flavoured beer. Our founder’s intention was to combine the refreshing taste of a German lager with the distinctive taste of an English Ale without blending the two.

Very light yellow, with a surprisingly decent head. Slight aroma. A rather thin body, but that goes along well with the flavor. Sort of like a pale lager with a little added bitterness to keep your mouth from going to sleep. Extremely drinkable.

I remember when I first drinked that beer, I’ve found it really tasteful, maybe a little too much for my young age at the time. But a few weeks ago I’ve drinked another Cream Ale and I definitely liked the taste, quite watery at first, but has a great comeback. this beer is quite tasty, but you certainly don’t want to get a hangover with those. great beer overall but maybe just alittle too watery.

Bottle. Pass it up! The description says "smooth for a full-flavoured beer" - well the flavor police must’ve stolen the goods outta my bottle! Head was weak and fizzy. This was a pale lager-like beer with a pissy taste. All that was missing was the aluminum taste and it could’ve been a Coor’s product.

Smells corny, looks a bit better than what I expected. Golden with a lasting sort of white, sort of not head. Tastes far better than I expected, it actually has hops that I can taste in it. The palate is acceptable. This came from a brown bottle not a clear bottle, maybe this is why I found it acceptable rather than not.

Draft at the Cactus Cantina in Vancouver. Pale straw colored bour with a thin white head that basically wasn’t really even there. There was a minimal hops scent but not much. This brew was boring as hell basically a macro with a touch of something more.

[074-20061023] 341mL. Watery beery earth aroma, like pizza dough. Pale golden body with many big bubbles throughout and a long-lasting fluffy white head. Metallic taste though not tinny, kind of smooth and earthy and unmemorable at first then after a while become an ew-y fruity bark. OK mouth, fairly non-offensive (at first). Good for a pizza and beer games night, I guess.

Bottle. Had this as part of Sleeman sampler pack. Pours golden, a bit of a sharp aroma. Can taste malt, and certainly corn. An average beer for certain.
