Mill Street Original Organic Lager

Brewed by Mill St. Brewery
Style: Pale Lager
Toronto, Canada

On tap at Cloak and Dagger in Toronto, 07.12.09. Clear gold with white head. Aroma is malty and hoppy, nothing special. Flavor is grainy and malty. I wouldn’t seek this beer out again.

Not worth the money when you can get the same thing much less at the beerstore/lcbo. Tastes grassy, a little bitter but not much flavour to speak of.

Pours clear yellow slight head. Aroma is slightly skunky, flavour is sweet and a little hoppy. Pretty dull.

As far as pale lagers go, it’s alright. Refreshing, mild, no hops. A bit of a weird taste and a little gritty in the palate, but somehow that makes it better? Because pale lager taste is generally pretty weak so at least this gives it something extra. If it’s between this and Canadian macros, get this. If it’s between this and any of Mill St.’s other offerings, get something else they make.

341ml bottle. No head. Very basic with a clean aftertaste. A very easy beer that can be enjoyed in the sun.

341ml bottle from the LCBO. Pours a light yellow, with a thick head that left nice lacing down the glass. Aroma of grassy hops gets your hopes up, only to have the first taste bring them crashing down. Not bad taste, just no taste at all. Might as well have a glass of water.

There is something very strange about this beer. aroma and initial taste is that of processed tomatoes. canned pasta? evens out eventually. As a light beer, it is full of flavour and quite unique. However, the tomato aroma/flavour may not appeal to most drinkers.

On tap at Gabby’s. I must say, I actually enjoyed this one. Slightly sweet malt with a sweet corn taste. Very smooth, with a light body (but not thin). Refreshing, clean lager. Would get it again.
