May 25, 2007 Can. Pours a clear bubbly gold with a large mostly-lasting white head. Pleasant enough aroma of herbal hops, bready yeast and grass. Flavour’s a bit hoppier then I expected -- it’s not that it’s really hoppy or anything it’s just that I was expecting to taste none. Saaz hops, sweet malt, biscuity yeast, a bit grassy and a light bitter finish. Good approximation of a decent European Pilsener. It does share certain similarities to the Creemore Lager. Medium bodied. This is far from my favourite beer style but this is a failry good version of it.

Mar 24, 2008 473ml can from Hogtown Harry; Nose of grain and grassy hops; tranlucent gold with a big yellow-tinged head; flavor has very light hop bitterness balanced by light sweetness; a good lawnmower or session brew but only very light bitterness!

Sep 18, 2008 Can. Clear, golden, fizzy off-white foam had to be imagined as we sipped this clandestinely smack dab in the middle of monkey-suit central in Toronto, in surrounded by skyscrapers. Grainy aroma, hardly hoppy. Thin, but quaffable and not too carbonated. Flavorless finish. Better than a swill for sure, but not a great brew. It’s grassy, somewhat phenolic but not horrid.

May 29, 2007 Can, LCBO. Medium yellow, a few bubbles, decent sized fluffy white head with only a little bit of lacing. Interesting mineral nose, faint hops. Very bready, not all that unlike the lager. Taste - honestly, served at a crappy sports pub, like Creemore lager is a lot these days, I would have a hard time distinguishing this from the lager. A little more crisp and thinner, which makes the hops a little more pronounced, but man, that is very simliiar. I’m not an expert on the style, but I don’t think all pils suck like I may have a few years ago either - I’ve had some great ones since and this doesn’t come close. But as is, it is a quenching summer drink - that this market did not need at all.
