PaulHegedus (458), Georgetown, Ontario, Canada Sep 22, 2009 Bottle at cellar temperature. It’s a really warm amber orange in colour with a sizable off-white head. There’s soft toffee in the aroma with some dark grapes, raisin then orange and light grapefruit in the hops. The mouthfeel is thin and a bit on the watery side. In flavour, it’s an ale full of bready malt, some honey, orange zest with light grass and dandelion in the hops. The finish is medium with citrus and mild bitterness. Spab (236), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 5, 2009 500 ml bottle. Pours a murky copper with creamy white head. Light citrus hops in the nose with grass and caramel. Flavour has nice hop presence, fairly sweet, with hit of orange zest and long grassy finish. Decent body; light, fine carbonation. Enjoyable. pintbypint (1002), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Sep 5, 2009 500ml brown bottle. Copper/amber shade, hazy. Good head - off white, creamy and lacy. Citrus in the aroma, caramel malt. Flavour also is caramel malts, snappy citrus hops, fruity, also lightly grassy. Finish is hoppy with more grass notes. Pleasant lasting aftertaste, grassy with a littel citrus. Light to medium in body, carbonation is light and not invasive. Decent ale, could drink a few of these in a sitting. DeanF (285), Paris, France Sep 4, 2009 Very nice and appealing aroma of breadiness and barley that makes the brew definitely inviting. Looks good, nice brown colour, could likely use more head. I like this flavour - bready but fruity, some sweet notes and citrusy hints, slightly dry finish but not too dry. Feels okay on the mouth. A really good ale overall and definitely worth a little attention. daknole (2802), Plantation, Florida, USA Sep 1, 2009 Amberish pour. malty sweetness on the nose. flavor is also malty and has some residual sweetness to go with a bit of hop bite at the end. Cracker flavors...pretty bland. Just not my style. charlotte (1997), Vanløse, Denmark Sep 1, 2009 Dark reddish colour with small head.Aroma is sweet malty and flowery,mild tosted mouthfeels and good mild caramel flavor,hint of dry fruits aswell. GG (1612), NorCal, California, USA Aug 23, 2009 Nothing wrong with this beer at all, other than it lacked any real interesting character in aroma or flavor. Just kind of a bland ale, but refreshing. Aroma is light iced tea, a bit of sweetness and some wet paper. Appearance was a very nice clear amber body with a nice 2" off-white head. Head left behind some decent lacing clings. Flavor had a bit of earthyness to it, light caramel and light spice notes. Went down very easy. Very nice mouthfeel. TipsyMcStager (900), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Aug 22, 2009 Pours cloudy copper with a thin head. Slight malt, light dry finish. Average.
