| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 31, 2008 FIRKIN CASK at Bar Volo. Hazy orange, pond-like appearance. Comes at the taste buds with a celluloid, spicy attack that must be the hops, very unusual, and the finish is primarily of bitter hops. The middle and body is fruity and smooth, not cloying. Pretty beer! garthicus (1290), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 4, 2008 On tap, Granite brewery. Big bubbly head, golden copper body, a sharp bitter aroma with a dry-fruity flavour and a bitter finish, very nice offering Bobsy (194), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 18, 2007 On tap at the Granite Brewery in Toronto. Again, a lovely looking beer. Granite cannot be faulted for freshness and vitality of appearance in their beers. Copper with a rocky white head. Aroma is full of hops, but somewhat subdued. The taste is also full of hops, but in a perfect balance, with strong notes of pine and citrus. The palate is crisp and refreshing. All in all, a very decent bitter.

Good bitter ale with a strong hint of hops. Very enjoyable and the best place for me to get a beer like home. Doesn’t stand out but a decent sesh beer. JAF737300 (797), Tampa, Florida, USA
