Barnabus (28), Niagara, Ontario, Canada Jun 16, 2008 At the Woolwich Arms in Guelph. Flat with no head and very heavy in the mouth and stomach. Smells and tastes of bread dough. Not a pleasant beer. Illuminatus (87), Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada May 31, 2008 Cask at the Castle on King. Brown with a thin white head. Aroma of light floral hops and a nutty note. Flavour is of mildly sweet malt, with a prominent mushroom note. Hops are barely noticeable. Served at cellar temperature, little carbonation. Needs more hops. glip (21), Kitchener, Ontario, Canada Aug 25, 2007 Cask @ Castle on King. Served at cellar temperature, minimal carbonation. A nice subtle citrus/grassy hop combination, both in the "flavour" hops and in the finish. A decent malt backbone that works well with the hopping, instead of trying to steal the show. mabel (1583), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 21, 2007 Updated: Dec 31, 2007[548-20070819] Tap @ Victory Cafe (Toronto, ON). Hoppy citrus aroma is mildly lemony. Hazy, amber brown body with a very long-lasting creamy white head. Mild citrus hops continues in flavour with a bitter finish. Medium body. Very nice to sip on the patio, especially in such fresh shape. (7/4/6/3/15) 3.5
[779E-20071021] Cask @ Volo Cask Days 2007 (Toronto, ON; "Dry Hopped"). Citrus and hoppy grass aroma. Slightly hazy, orange brown body with no head. Doughy yeast and mild alcoholic grass flavour. Smooth medium body. Uninteresting. (7/2/6/2/11) 2.8 JesseM (361), Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada Jul 23, 2007 Updated: May 10, 2008Sampled at the Kitchener Craft Beer show. Pours a nice amberish colour. Not much aroma, mostly hops. The taste is a nice blend of some sharp tasty hops, and some sweet bready malts. Very enjoyable over all.
