Commercial Description:
This is an iridescent amber coloured beer which is topped by a foam reminiscent of perpetual snow. Each draught is ample, without being heavy. The malt savours that envelop the palette are followed by a lightly roasted flavour. A taste of caramel echoes its way into the aftertaste, as the whole is crowned by a hint of bitterness.

Draught at the brewpub. Pours a clear orange with a small lasting creamy off-white head. Nice lacing. Aroma is bready with some grain, hops and faint fruit. This being a Cream Ale, one of my most hated styles, the flavour surprised me with how good it was: it’s fruity, malty and has a good amount of hops -- unlike most beers of this style, it’s quite flavourful. Medium bodied. Definitely one of the best Cream Ales I’ve had.

[tap @ the brewpub] Beautiful clear yellow color, topped with a dense, creamy head. Flavors are nice, toasted malts. Finishes surprisingly bitter. Subtle carbonation. I could easily make a huge session out of this one.

Draught (nitro), RBSG 2005. Body is medium amber. Aroma is lightly malty (toasted bread, cookie), lightly hoppy (flowers). Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly to moderately acidic, lightly bitter. Light to medium body, watery texture, soft carbonation. Not much to see here.

Dark brown, orange hues, thick creamy white head. Decent fruity aroma. Decent fruity taste - lots of malt - as good as this style can get I would think. Earthy fruity hops as well. Not bad, it still isn’t a pint I would reach for again and again, but this has tons more flavour than a Caffrey’s or Kilkenny, two of my intro beers.

Robe rousse aux reflets cuivrés très claire surmontée d’une mousse épaisse. Arômes de malt, de fumé et de houblon. Saveurs de fumé, de malt caramel et de carton. Houblon de soutien.

Très rafréchissante, pas trop amère avec ce petit arrière goût de caramel. Meilleur que la Kilkenny.

draft at the brewpub. Amber pour with large beautiful white creamy head. Malty aroma with some mild hoppiness. Chewy maltiness to begin, oily hop presence on the tongue. Tasty brew, I am not entirely familiar with the style, but I like this.

Draft at brewpub. Mild metallic-like caramelly bread-like aroma which is very faint and unassertive. Transparent copper color with a fluffy off-white/yellowish head. Sweet caramelly, bready, toasty flavors with lots of caramel and some roastiness. Sticky, full-bodied, and decent.
