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.

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

I had this as a cask version, and from what I remember from a while back, it’s quite different from the nitro-tap version. Hops here predominate in the nose, and hoppy caramel notes are very present in the mouth. The mouthfeel is light, and slightly carbonated, not ultra-smooth like the nitro. I didn’t find this to really be an Irish cream ale, but I don’t really care. Fruity, good beer. Cask.

Draught. Creamy uncomplicated. Perfect maltiness with a great faom. Carbonation is mute. The best example of a canadian cream ale I have come across. Grossly underrated.

On tap at the brewpub, visited June 23 2007 with a big group of friends (no fellow rateberrieans though). Slightly hazy golden amber with a decent white. Aromas of vanilla cookies and caramel, flavour profile much the same with a faintly fruity quality in the finish. Perhaps it is just that the finish is a little acidic, slightly tart even. Very drinkable and delicious.

Hazy amber body with a large bubbly head. Its malty aroma got some pepperish and celery hints. Taste is also relatively complex. It is soft and sweet, but ends with a pronounciated bitter final. Very nice beer.

En fût. Verre de 4 oz dégustée à la brasserie. Arôme: Odeur de céréale avec une pointe de caramel. Apparence: La couleur est cuivrée. Présence d’un mince col crémeux et d’une large dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de céréale avec une pointe d’houblon fruité. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture crémeuse. Faible effervescence en bouche. Présence de céréale en arrière goût. (Rating #1761)

Draught at the brewpub
Amber color, creamy head. Nose of bright fruit and hops, a little roast. Medium body and ripe grapefruit. The finish is balanced. Nice.

Tap- RBSG 05. Nitro. Pours a soft light amber, with a thick creamy beige head. Aroma is slightly nutty, caramel malts, hints of earthy hops and even a bit of metallic hints. Nice smooth creamy mouthfeel. Light body with some light crystal malts, with just a touch of bitterness in the end. I noted a bit of diacetyl as well. Perfect easy drinking session ale.
