Floral hop aroma with a bit of sweet malt behind it. Medium smooth body. Nice sweet fruity start with a dry citrus hop finish. Not bad. pintbypint (1014), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 25, 2004 500ml brown bottle. 4.4% abv. Golden, slow rising bubbles of carbonation. Thick chunky white head. Flowery hop aroma. Sweet body, some citrusy hops. Would be a great session pint. Boutip (2390), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Sep 20, 2004 Bottle: Poured a golden colored ale with a small head with minimum retention. Aroma is mostly comprised of floral malts with limited sweetness. Taste is lightly hoppier then your average English pale ale and a bit dry at the end. Overall, very refreshing but I feel again that this would be way better served fresh on cask… Beer Snob (382), Ontario, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 19, 2004 Strange one this - if I was to rate it based upon whether or not it succeeded as an IPA, its rating would be much lower. Judged on its own merits however, this is a really good beer. A very light and bubbly body and a good fresh aroma. A curious lack of hoppiness however. But a really flavourful and smooth beer - nice carbonation, good flavour and no lingering bitterness. DarkStar22769 (100), Ontario, Canada
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 19, 2004 One of the palest ales I have drunk in a while; thin white head, captivating golden colour, and mild evidence of beading. Very floral aroma... Very sweet front taste that continues with a candyish-ness. I swear I detected bubblegum in here. A very light beer with a moderate amount of complexity...a nice little LCBO find. pootzboy (1048), Hawgville, Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 16, 2004 Updated: Sep 14, 2007Pasturized bottled version at 4.4%....poured a light gold color with a small 1 finger white cap that goes to a nice lace and sticky ring. Mild carconation. Aromas of floral hopping over sweet bready malts. Front is delicate with creamy sweet malts in balance with grassy-floral hops...light body, very smooth and mellow...finish is clean with a drying by the hops. A very refreshing light IPA...a very pleasnt way to slack a thirst on a warm day. I would recommend this IPA to both dry ale fanciers and light ale fanciers alike.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 16, 2004 Bottle- Pours a sparkling amber colour with a creamy looking white head. Aroma is initial hops, but not strong, then followed by some faint candy aromas. Taste is subtle hops, candy, and citrus. Nice bitteraftertaste, but I wish it was a little stronger in taste.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 10, 2004 Bottle.Pale copper coloured. Thin, quickly gone head. Fruity and hoppy aroma. Creamy mouthfeel. Fruity (citrus) taste, and well balanced between hops and malt. Dry finish. I think I prefer the bottled verion to the cask, the extra alcohol (4.4 compared to 3.8%)sits well."
