Jul 19, 2008 341ml bottle
4.7% ABV
I tried this beer on July 11, 2008 at “Smokeless Joe’s” in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a dark translucent gold colour, with orange hues, with a thin white head. The aroma was mainly grassy malts with some hoppish tones. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, with medium carbonation. The flavour was grainy malt, some citrusy tones, and a small tinge of hoppish bitterness.

Jul 14, 2008 Bottle - 500ml. Amber body with good carbonation and average off-white frothy head. Well balanced malty/hoppy aroma with floral and grassy hints. Decent hoppy taste that lacks complexity. It ends with a short bitter finish. under-average Bitter.

Jul 10, 2008 This ale poured a golden orange colour with a short lived white spore like head. To the nose there are scents of metal, hopps, corn and grass. First sip was smooth with light carbonation. Not much complexity to the flavour. Corn, hopps and a barrell sum it up. Finish is slightly bitter with a slight watery palate.

Jul 7, 2008 Bottle (clear, ugh!) from the LCBO. Bright golden with a medium white head. Aroma has a kmild skunkiness to start, but once it airs out a bit, there are some pleasant floral notes, along with honey and a slightly woody character. Body is light and crisp, and the flavour has the floral and honey notes promised by the aroma, along with a squeeze of citrus towards the finish. Not bad, a nice summer ale, but would probably be better/fresher tasting if available in a brown bottle.

Jul 5, 2008 Clear bottle (why do brewers choose these?). Pours a slightly hazy amber orange with lots or carbonation and a thick white head. Aroma is unappealing, with cerals, floral and cittrus hops masked by cardboard. Flavour is cereals with the metalic/minerally notes common to a lot of the waters used in UK brewing. Very little hop profile at all. Thin watery palate. Yuck.

Jul 5, 2008 i think the clear bottle was not a great idea for this beer.... orange golden color, lotsa fizzy bubles that are gonequickly nose is malts and skunky smell, kinda bland flavor except for the skunkiness and a odd metallic flavor. would try again to rerate but not with it being in a clear bottle.

Jul 1, 2008 500mL bottle, pours a golden colour with little bit of head. Aroma is a but musty. Flavour is nice, slightly bitter but nothing too unique. Bitter and long finish. Not bad in comparison to a macro lager, but nothing too special to make me want to go out and buy this on a regular basis
