| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 4, 2009 341ml bottle from the LCBO. Pours a dark gold with a fluffy white head that had good retention and good lacing. Aroma of floral hops. At first, it tasted a bit malty and grassy, but about halfway through the glass, the hops came out to play, leaving a nice, bitter finish. I’d like to see six packs of this.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Dec 13, 2009 Smells crisply of lagered malt, like a proper pilsner, only its quite faint as comparied to the european pilsners. Needs more finishing hops. It definately nails the redness button, but is completely boring to look at otherwise. A nice bit of fizz in the mid to late palate but again, that is it. This is a pretty good domestic pilsner, I would say it needs more sharpness across all the ranges before it could be a REAL pilsner, though.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 19, 2009 Bottle ( 341ml ). Purchased at the brewpub. Deep clear ruby-amber with a very large fizzy-foamy off-white lasting head (3+). Classic fresh grassy bitterness, mild fresh grain malt, a little toastier than I expected - quite clean. The taste follows, fresh grain, not as grassy, a bit better balanced; slightly soapy. Light body, dry, mildly carbonated, leaves a light iron aftertaste - by Canadian pils standards this is pretty friggin great, although it’s a bit watery, and I’d like some more oomph in the taste from those strong grassy aroma hops. cfrancis (349), Gloucester, Ontario, Canada
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Oct 2, 2009 Pretty run of the mill Pilsner. Nice hop taste with a fine bitterness. Nothing amazing, but better than most. jimmay (224), Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

Mild hop aroma, taste starts sweet and finishes perhaps a little hoppy for the style, but I realy enjoyed it! Great Pilsner! Strangebrewer (224), Chatham, Ontario, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 20, 2009 bottle. Poured clear dark copper colour with a moderate fluffy off-white head. Sweet floral hop aroma. Smooth medium bodied, grassy/herbal flavour. Sweet and malty up front and finishes with just enough spicy bitterness. JHunter (247), British Columbia, Canada

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 15, 2009 Bottle. Pours burnt sienna, with a thin white head and spotty lacing. Nose is solidly malty, though a bit too toffeeish, plus nice gentle hoppiness. Palate is soft and sweet. Better than some Pilseners I’ve had, but nothing terribly special.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 15, 2009 Hey, wow, a beer from mill street that doesn’t make me want to cry. Smells of wet grass and light hops, pours a nice golden amber color, and actually has flavour! I know, mill street beer with flavor! wth?? Has a nice bitter taste, toasted white bread, and hops, both on the palate and after-palate. Really nice for a pilsener.
