| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Mar 21, 2007 Deep amber coloured body with a ruby tint. Very hoppy in the nose with some stronger caramel malt playing a part as well. Medium-bodied with a very smooth taste. From the beginning, you knew this was Nitrogenated and it obviously shows off in the taste too, which is a good thing. Bitterness from the hops and structure from the malt is very noticeable in this one and it works. Aftertaste shows the english hop bitterness and it’s welcomed. I sampled this beer on draught at the brewpub on 28-February-2007. tupalev (2617), Waterloo, Ontario, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 29, 2005 On tap (nitro) at the brewpub. Dark brown, faint sweet malt aroma (nitro hurts it here). Thick nitro tan head. Decent malt taste, hops not present at all except at the end as they linger. Bland city, put this on cask not nitro and let’s see how the beer tastes.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 14, 2009 Tap at the brewpub: Deep copper with a strong lacing off white head. Sweet aroma, diacetyl (like many of their beers), and toffee. Vague. Slick texture with a sweet diacetyl flavor (surprise). What’s up with Thirsty Bear and diacetyl? Tastes like they brew with buttered popcorn. rayOfBeer (319), El Cerrito, California, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Dec 3, 2008 Poured from tap at brewpub an amber color with medium off-white head. Nose of malt and bisquit. Flavor was slightly bisquity and a touch of caramel with an odd light peachy floral hoppiness. Palate was light almost watery throughout. Easy to drink but did not get my interest. Lubiere (4528), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
