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.

garthicus (2006) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 3, 2009
Can, on the train on the way to Montreal to Mondial beer festival. Appearance: golden yellow, lots of visible carbonation with a thick white head. Aroma: grass, corn, band aid, paper. Flavour: Corn, malt, acidic, wet paper. Nothing creamy about it. Inoffensive but bleh

Papillon (280) - Sudbury, Ontario, CANADA - APR 11, 2009
341 mL Bottle. Clear gold body with a small and instantly dissipating head. Very mild but basic malty aroma with notes of grass and grapefruit and a hint of caramel. Flavor is light sweet malt with grass and a hint of crystal malt in the aftertaste followed with light sweet malt in the finish. Meh... very middle-of-the-road.

Not bad. I liked it. Very watery though. Not a whole lot of flavors. But I thought it was drinkable.

Poured from bottle. Nice light golden color, but not much head which disappeared quickly. Some lacing left behind. Smelled a bit malty. I found the taste quite average. Smooth, clean tasting, but nothing really stood out. Good overall.

checkmatei1 (764) - Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 16, 2009
Bottle: This one was the best of the box for me. It had a very subtle creaminess to it in the finish which made this the best of the four. Not much else to say.

Pyrozoid (352) - Gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - JAN 10, 2009
Bouteille de 350 ml. Une biere de couleur blonde Or avec un collet presque absent non collant. Odeur de blé d’inde, bois humide et un peu le caramel. Gout cremeux tres simple. Biere rafraichissante.

from the can. aroma is very light, not much going on. Has a fresh flavor and finish. As cream ale goes I expect a richer flavor. Frankly Not that good.
