Jul 23, 2005 For a pale, it’s really dark, and that’s an understatement. Good drinking ale. Sweet, with a little fruit.

Jul 22, 2005 Thanks go to my man up north, beerhugger, for this one! It took me awhile to find this stuff in the database. "Where’s the belgian blonde?" It can’t be a pale ale...wha? it is? OK.... Clear, dark golden pour with a beady, thick head. Great aromas, with a sweet malty touch that reminds me of honey and peaches. Just the slightest bit hoppy. Beautifully delicate on the palate, with hints of fruit, fresh dough, flowers, and honey. Malty, lingering finish. This would be a great summer session beer. I don’t really know about this being an APA, but it’s just such a tasty beer, I can’t knock it. Thanks again, Steve!!!

Jul 20, 2005 Sweet hoppy flowery aroma, nice red gold colour with little head. Slightly sweet with a bitter hoppy aftertaste. Leaves an odd taste on the tongue I am unfamiliar with.

Jul 19, 2005 Updated: Sep 20, 2005Bottle (341ml) - Pours a fairly clear glowing coppery amber, quick-dispersing white head, bubbly lacing left behind. Aroma - hop-bitter, slightly sour malt, apricot, grains (corn? canola?). Taste is mild hop, mild grainy malt - smooth, balanced, non-challenging but not boring either. A bit of astringent orange peel and minerals on the palate, starts a tad malty, finishes bitter. Tastes of northern forest and eastern rocks. Not great but very good Canadian ale - why don’t the macros even taste remotely like this?

Jul 19, 2005 Pours orange/copper, slightly cloudy with a nice frothy head. Aroma is citrus fruits (Lemon and orange rind, a bit of grapefruit), mild yeast and malt. Flavours are very nice, citrus fruits, yeast and a bit of bitterness at first but a fairly heavy finish. Mouthfeel is quite creamy. Very refreshing

Jun 25, 2005 Bottle. Light brown color, bubble and thin white head, fully lasting and nice lacings. Hops and yeast aroma. Explosion of malt, cereal and fruits. Light alcohol in the finish, watery texture (just a little) and light to medium bodied. Nice Pale Ale.
Bière de couleur brun pale avec des bulles dans sa robe et un mince collet blanc qui perdure jusqu’à la fin et qui colle bien au verre. Au goût, le malt est frappant à la 1ere gorgée, go¸ut également de céréal et de fruits. Texture un peu acqueuse, corps léger à médium, leger fini d’alcool. Très bonne Pale Ale.
