Mill Street Original Organic Lager

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

With 2/3-sized bottles and lower alcohol content, this beer is obviously designed to be a quick refresher. Clear glass bottle and lifeless pale-yellow body hint this could be a Mexican-inspired brew, but the pleasant skunk and high-hop nose shows more pizzazz than its southern bottom-fermented counterpart. Thirst-quenching and palate-cleansing, this lager is a quickie in more ways than one: not only is it gone in a couple gulps, but the slightly sweet/slightly bitter flavour doesn’t hang around long either.

Better than I expected, but still not very good. Pours a very very light yellow, with no head. Taste is very light hoppy flavour, with some grass. Nothing special at all, but I’ll give it some browny points for being organic.

0.215 l bottle. Pale golden color. Good maltiness, honey and hint of herbal hops in the aroma. Malt driven flavor with honey and fairly low bitterness as well as low hop flavor. Good maltiness.

222 mL bottle as part of my Ontario discovery pack. The taste isn’t as thin as I expected looking at this tiny bottle. Standard hoppy lager that has a pleasant bitterness, though it is kind of boring overall. I’ll give it credit for being pretty decent though, I was expecting a really girly beer...

Bottle - Tiny bottle at that, I feel like a giant! Grassy nose, uninteresting colour and aroma, same with the beer, very grassy with a bitter aftertaste

Little bottle, Nice fruity after taste that I don’t expect from a lager. Smell is sort of gross. Despite that this is a very peppy beer.

222ml bottle? What the hell? It came in my Ontario Craft Brewing pack. Anyways, clear bottles are always kind of shifty, and this one is only marginally better than other clear-bottle beers. I won’t describe the visual, as there’s a perfectly good picture of this beer to the left of this rating. It blows me away, this beer literally tastes like corn on the cob! It’s amazing! Well, if you like corn. Sorry, ORGANIC corn. It’s not terrible though. There’s actually some grassy hops in the aroma, and what might be real barley malts in the aftertaste. If you love adjuncts, wow, holy crap this beer is for you! They’re organic!
