Had this while waiting for our bottle of Péché Mortel to warm up. Lightly hazy, apricot colored beer with a creamy white head, pretty much like it looks to the left. Sweet and sour aroma of fruity ale yeast with a touch of sourness. Flavor is again sweet and sour and it seems the yeast has a lot of influence on this beer, as it does with many cream ales. But, I felt there wasn’t enough else going on besides the light fruitiness from the ale yeast and the mildly crisp finish. The damned head was annoying when I was trying to drink this, because I kept getting sips of the head, which was very tastless and foamy. A little bit of dry caramel on the finish, dough and a light spiciness from the yeast, again. A well made ale/lager. Medium body, light wateriness at the end, pleasant carbonation and no alcohol.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 21, 2004 A well rounded cream ale that ranks a tad brighter than sleemans. Watery for certain, but still reminiscient of flowers in whipped cream. Passes the taste test! Boutip (2406), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 13, 2004 Tap: Clear amber ale with a huge creamy-like head with excellent retention. Aroma is solely comprised of some very nice floral malts. Taste is quite refreshing with again the floral malt bringing some added sweetness, which makes this even more enjoyable. Taste is also very creamy-like and way better then some other cream ale (Sleeman). I very much enjoyed this as a great session beer.
