Whistler Classic Pale Ale

Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 4

Very clear metallic brown body with the most pathetic film floating on top that you can imagine. The is disgusting smelling sour rotten vegetables with astringent, now doesn’t that description just want to make you go out and buy one of these. Overly sweet tasting with dark roasted malts some soapy hops and more rotting vegetables. When warm some defanent caramel started to show up and I just got a giant hunk of chocolate flavour in the last sip. Crap beer totally unpleasant to drink.

Found this on sale at the government liquor store on Vancouver. ^ pack of cans came with a small soft sided cooler. Label claims to be "Brewed exclusively with Whistler Glacier Water". No date code visible. Clear, bronze/gold color, with 2 fingers of fluffy white foam. Decent retention thin string of lace. Smell of grassy hops, earthy rather than fruity,with slight caramel malt. Taste has good bitterness blended with biscuit malt. Chewy, grainy hop, with out the grapefruit and floweriness in other american pale ales. A decent british style ale. Medium body with good carbonation. Good, but I thought there was nothing to make it more than just average. (Maybe it was getting old, and that is why it was on sale)

Pouring an attractive amber hue paired with a so-so off-white head, I was treated to a chiefly malted aroma. Nicely malted was the taste, with a most agreeable mouthfeel and aftertaste. I did indeed like this beer, as 'twas not a watery pale ale like so many others. Better on tap, too.
