| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Jun 4, 2009 Bread-like malts are joined by butterscotch in the nose. Clear golden body is topped by a shy white head that recedes rapidly to ring. Butterscotch flavour is quite strong but balanced by fairly assertive bitterness that lingers in the aftertaste. Some grainy character in the aftertaste. Dry medium light body is pleasantly quite effervescent. Snifter. Just above fridge temperature. Bottle purchased at Brewery Creek in April 2009.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 9, 2008 Hazy golden blonde, decent dense white head. Grainy pale malt with a noticable lemony zip, pleasantly bitter crisp finish. Quite flavourful and well done (I think this should be moved into "premium lager" status). jcwattsrugger (5582), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 13, 2007 Unfortunately we don’t get much good lager here in BC. This is an alright beer but not great and it did not even warrant any detailed notes when I drank it at the pub. TipsyMcStager (946), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Sep 17, 2007 Aroma is nice, toasty vanilla. Flavour doesn’t follow the lead. Unappealling grassiness with plastic notes. presario (3010), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 10, 2007 Attractive gold. Light white ring. Smells like an amber with vanilla toffee notes. Flavour is more in keeping with a European lager. A bit of hop spice and a grainy finish. mgermani (867), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Jul 4, 2007 Nearly no aroma except for a faint smell of corn. Pours a clear yellow with a small foamy head with nice lace. Very woody tasting, corn as well, sweet with a sharp hop aftertaste. Thin body with poor carbonation. Interesting wood flavour for a lager, but otherwise... meh.
