Pale amber coloured. Soft, nutty, mild & complex.

Light copper colour. Macro-ish aroma of caramel, metals, and slight stale grassy hops. Light body, almost no flavour save a hint of caramel. Worse than I remembered it, and my memories weren't fond.

<b>Bottle (341ml)</b>. Oh boy, cream ale ... well, it’s a rating. Poured a clear brassy gold with an average creamy-rocky white head. Aroma of straw, grain and a bit of honey - light yet harsh but I’ll give it 5 because it doesn’t smell like a Delmonte product. Tastes the same - grainy, sweet, yes a little harsh, but it reminds me of slightly sweeter old style Canadian ales - not that that’s a particularly good thing, but yer Dad would probably like this one. Mouthfeel is almost stingingly sharp, a little too bitter - leaves a slightly harsh bitter aftertaste. Beats Blue.

(Bttle) Deep amber body and a medium, white head. Nose of vanilla and apples. Nice texture and carmel malt taste. Smooth finish. Average at best.

Toronto Festival of Beer - 2000. Nice, but not the best cream ale I have had. will try again to give it a better sampling.
