Laker Ale

I guess they had to do an ale when they saw that Lakeport had one out. I do enjoy the Lakeport one (as it does feel like an ale), but this one... not sure. Pours a clean golden colour with a fizzy white head that dissipates quickly and leaves no traces. Smells and taste like corn, with of course some chemical disaster. This is not felt directly from the bottle (so this is the only way to drink this). So, Lakeport wins this one... and the rest, I will have straight from the bottle.

This brewery is known more for their lagers than the 'ale' style. That in itself made me a skeptic. After trying it out, the skepticism prevails. Another weak malt beverage from the Laker people.

Typical Laker swill, yet there are a few things that stand out, at least in terms of this particular brand. For one thing, it has the "best" aroma of any Laker I have ever sniffed, not that that means much. And like most swills, no need to bother dirtying up a glass - stick to the bottle. There is a somewhat aleish type flavourng to it, yet there really is no difference between this and Laker's lager. Or really, any of their other beers in the line. Basically, it's watered down crap, even as far as swill goes, and that's all you really need to know :)

Bottle from the brewery retail outlet. OK My ratings whore instinct took over my better judgement and I tried one of these buck a beer wonders from the Brick. Pours a flacid yellow gold with a smal quickly vanishing cap, no lacing to speak of. Fizzycarbonation. Light grainy sweet aroma Thin mouth feel, graininess with a detectable fruity note and stale hops fast abrupt finish, no off tastes but pretty cheap. Kinda like a resurrected poor boy Molson Golden ale.
