Had this beer up at a Ontario bar. I had recently had Rickards Red and decided to explore other Red’s in the area.
This one however disappointed me a bit. The smell was good, but it appeared a little weak. The head was minimal. The red amber color was more clear, and the whole beer felt very watery.
The taste was nothing remarkable. Not a bad red but certainly not as palatable as Rickards. The texture was quite thin and watery, and the beer seemed to have a light weight feel, not really thick. I wasnt asking for a milkshake but I expect my red to be a little heavier.
I personally didnt love this one, and opted to have just the one trial pint and leave it at that.

Dec 7, 2009 On tap at Annies in Ste- Anne de Bellevue. Not to many choices at this place but I was waiting for somebody and it was very hot .The color is a dark copper with a thick beige head, that was the good part. The taste well is of a cheap commercial beer nothing special, some hoppiness and some bitterness.

Nov 1, 2009 Brown pour with a nice frothy nitro like head. Aroma is adjunct, grain, and a slight caramel malt note. Flavor is grainy, astringent, and mildly sweet with hints of hop bittering. Palate is very thin, making the brew an easy session, but less than ideal quaff.

Oct 4, 2009 Bouteille 341ml. De couleur ambrée et claire. Nez de grains de malt pâle sucré avec des petites notes de caramel rôti, de légumes bouillis, léger de houblon herbeux (gazon et herbes mouillées) ainsi que des traces métalliques. Mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-bas et une texture aqueuse et aux petites notes sirupeuses. Goût de légumes bouillis sucrés lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de grains de malt pâle sucré avec des traces de caramel rôti et de miel puis en finale l’on retrouve des notes amères de houblon assez herbeux (gazon et herbes mouillées). Post-goût court, composé d’un goût herbeux avec de petites traces métalliques.

Sep 3, 2009 On tap at GLC in whistler. Red-amber with very little head. Aroma of caramel, light red fruits and some metallic undertones. Flavor is lightly hopped, sweet medium malt. Medium body but almost no flavor undertones, very little in the finish except sweetness. Refreshing after a day of biking but lacking as far as red and amber ales are concerned.
