speedywinger (21), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada May 30, 2008 Not sure if I’m rating the right beer here. The label says Rousse Ale and this beer is classified as and American Dark Lager. Anyway I’ll assume it’s just classified wrong. Deep red translucent body with not much head from the pour. What llittle head there was left good lacing. Aroma is corn, mild malts and weak. First taste is a burnt maltiness which I couldn’t taste after the first sip. Nothing much going on here. Although I wasn’t expecting much after trying the Unibroue U pilsner.
notalush (2036), Rawn-kawn-kohma, New York, USA Aug 24, 2008 Six pack purchased at some crappy convenience store in the Old Port section of Montreal - pours a clear, reddish copper, with a small, white lace - understated, almost bland aroma of yeast, light fruits, and flowers - the flavor is also quite yeasty and bready - this character dominates, making it hard to make out much else, aside from a light, fruity sweetness - one-dimensional to say the least - like yeasty rose water - yet, somehow a bit refreshing. EnSiFeRuM (265), Quebec, Canada Jun 3, 2008 Bouteille de 341 ml. Au départ on aperçoit la bière de couleur rousse cuivrée avec une mousse blanche modeste. Par la suite notre nez découvre des arômes de caramel brûlé, de noisettes grillées et des notes de chocolat. Pour finir notre palais rencontre un corps mince et nos papilles gustatives font connaissance avec des saveurs de caramel et de noisettes grillées. Des notes métalliques sont aussi présentes. Pyrozoid (160), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Apr 29, 2008 Biere rousse orangé, le collet disparait rapidement. Odeur sucré, petite senteur caramel ou peut-etre plus érable.et un peu épicé. Gout de malte et caramel. Rien d’extraordinaire, une biere rafréchissante. ABUSEDGOAT (1904), California, USA Jan 1, 2008 Clear reddish... well just look at the damn bottle. Aroma is caramel with light hops and more grainy malts. Light body with high carbonation. Why bother?
