jerc (3035), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 2, 2008 2008-05-01. Pale golden yellow, modest white head. Mild sweet grains and some industrial grainy alcohol notes in the aroma. Watery bland flavour, dilute pale malts. Very light bitterness is a lot less harsh than it could have been. Average to light palate. Meh, mostly just bland. Can shared by Tupalev
azlondon (455), Greater London, England Jun 30, 2008 Bought at Varadero airport.
Appearance: Dark yellow. Amber. Very little head.
Aroma: Pretty fruity. Hint of hops and malt.
Taste: Hops and malt. Bit of fruit. Bit of bitter aftertaste.
Info: 350ml bottle, 2/11-2006 GregClow (2272), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 16, 2008 Can shared with HogTownHarry, blankboy, jerc & tupalev - courtesy of tupalev. Light golden with a small white head. Aroma is quite sweet and grainy, a bit boring but not unpleasant. Medium bodied. Flavour is surprisingly inoffensive - faint sweet malt, some actual hop character, and a bit of booze in the finish. Wow, this could’ve been a lot worse. tupalev (2261), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 11, 2008 Can shared with Jerc, Hogtown Harry, GregClow, and Blankboy, courtesy of me via my friend Rich. Golden yellow, small frothy white head. Soft grain aroma - pretty mild, but not off like the last two organic beers we just had. Taste is very mild at first and then lots of strong alcohol. Not great, but not terrible either. blankboy (2464), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 7, 2008 Can (355ml) shared with HogTownHarry, GregClow, jerc & tupalev -- courtesy of tupalev. Pours a clear yellow-gold with a small diminishing white head. Aroma, surprisingly has some hops -- it’s also grassy, grainy and alcoholic. Watery flavour of grain, grass and alcohol. Slightly sweet, light bitter finish. tastes boring really. Average bodied. Honestly, this is better then I expected -- not good, just better then expected.
