The flavor was actually very smooth and tasty. I might have been the hot day, but this one was pretty good. hombrepalo (780), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jul 20, 2009 On tap at the moose something (dont remember) near the Rogers Centre. Copper color with a thin white head. Aroma of malt and grass. Medium-bodied; Astringent malt flavors up front, soon showing a bit sweeter tastes. Aftertaste is fairly bittering-not pleasant, but not horribly offensive. tgncc (840), Bellmore, New York, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Jul 19, 2009 The last of the beers from my Canada excursion. Malty, mainly toasted malts, no hops, or anything else. The appearnace is slightly more orange than the regular pale lager, white head. The flavor is toasted malts, lightly skunky. The finish is swet malts, no hops, not clean at all. Thin/medium mouthfeel. Not good, but I’ve had worse. I’m surprised this rated so highly, when there are so many decent premium lagers out there.

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jul 16, 2009 Arrived from the tap with almost no head and a gorgeous amber colour, one of the darkest lagers I’ve ever seen. Fair bit of malt evident to my nose, but not so much so in the taste. Mouthfeel and aftertaste were quite comforting (a wee hangover the day of drinking this had old Ross - that’s me - but the Creemore made me feel better). Really really really nice beer. Wished I started drinking this years ago, at least on tap. Sadly only available in the apparently less desirable bottles where I live. BrewDad (2370), Olympia, Washington, USA

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jun 29, 2009 Half liter can. Sweet honey, bright gold skunky lager, finishes . Can’t read my writing. It wasn’t a bad beer, but not impressive either. Vertical Bacon Strips (903), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 27, 2009 Poured out a creamy white cap with excellent lacing and has decent retention. Brew is a clear amber. Aroma is good and very fresh with lightly toasted malts, a touch of grass and floral hops which are very welcoming. The taste is very nice as well with more malts (toasted being the largest contributer), weak grass, citrus hops all perfectly balanced. Nears medium bodied I guess, very smooth, a bit dry with notable bitterness on the finish. That bitterness is not strong at all, just flavourful. An excellent beer, has to be considered one of the best of the style without question. Cirrhosis (623), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 8, 2009 What is this a beer on tap I have never heard of, this is truly an amazing day and should be celebrated with a beer I believe a shall have this one. The waitress drops the pint off in front of me and wow this is a perfect looking pint especially for a lager, tall two inch cap with amazing retention and nice sticky lacing body appears to be copper to ruby red, this is a spectacular looking brew. Aroma is nice and hoppy the hops smell like apricots, there is so much rich malt here smells so good but maybe a touch mild or this would have got amazing marks. Taste is light a refreshing sweet toasted malts and peachy hop character, it’s a very simple taste but my good its good. What a great find never even heard of this until I saw the coaster on are table , I think I have found my new lunch beer.
