| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 3, 2009 Pours gold with a thin head.
Aroma is caramel maltiness with some woody, fruity hop.
Flavour is very nice fruity and resinous/piney hop with a medium toasty caramel malt body and a dry bitter finish. Spab (302), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 29, 2009 On tap at Rebel. Pours a clear yellow gold with medium-sized lasting white head; decent retention. Hoppy aroma (pine) with notes of grass and light maltiness. Hops prominent in taste with nice pale malt balance and a light grassiness, maybe a hint of citrus. Crisp finish. Very tasty - this has been my go-to session beer for several years now. strowlands8 (87), Ontario, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 3, 2009 Great flavour, lots of hops and very tasty. Good mouth feel, fairly strongly carbonated but it suits the taste pretty well. Very drinkable as well, could definitely polish off enough of these in a night. Definitely not the most complex/interesting beer I’ve ever had but a great taste for sure. ladnewton (237), London, Greater London, England

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 8, 2009 Great mouth-engaging feel of rounded but bitter hops and full but not sticky malts. Grassy and citrus, bit of caramel, highly drinkable ’session pale’. Great standard fridge item that grows on you, I swear. BostonFox (26), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
