    Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 8

    16oz draught
    3.5% ABV
    I tried this beer on draught on April 30, 2009 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer was translucent light red with a loose white head. The aroma was grainy malt, with some hops in the mix. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with medium-high carbonation. The taste was more grainy malt, and a nice hoppy finish. The beer was very refreshing, and definitely worth another try.

    The beer poured a translucent medium gold with a frothy white head. The aroma is sour grassy malt, and alcohol. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied and mildy carbonated. The taste was heavy on the alcohol, and light on any real malt or hop flavours.

    The Beerbistro (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)

    Not sure why they list the volume at 354ml instead of 355ml. The beer pours a translucent golden orange colour with a thin white head. The aroma is grainy malt, some pine, and citrusy hops. The mouthfeel is very light and thin with medium high carbonation. The flavour is slightly sweet with ample grapefruity hoppy bitterness.

    The beer poured a semi-translucent reddish brown with a thin tan head. The aroma was sweet malt, some yeast, and plums. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was sweet malt, molasses, and some plums.

    The beer poured a beautiful translucent gold colour with a thin white head that quickly disappeared. The aroma was wet steel and some grass. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied, with mild carbonation. The flavour was metallic, grassy, slightly sour, and not at all good.

    I tried this beer on April 23, 2009 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a solid brownish-black with a 1" light brown head. The aroma was roasted malt, coffee, chocolate, yeast, and spices. The mouthfeel was full-bodied, slightly creamy and with medium carbonation. The flavour was roasted malt, chocolatey, with a hint of plums and molasses. A very enjoyable beer.

    650ml bottle
    8.0% ABV
    I tried this beer on April 23, 2009 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a clear golden-red colour with a thin white head, and some sediment floating around. The aroma was earthy, with some malt, and sour cherry to go along as well. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, with medium to high carbonation going on. The taste was earth, mud, some malt, and a little sour cherry. Good, but not great.

    I tried this beer on tap on April 9, 2009 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a hazy yellow-gold colour with a 1" thick white head. The aroma was grainy malt, some honey, and some hops. The mouthfeel was full-bodied, slightly creamy, and medium carbonation. The flavour was slightly hoppy with some grapefruit flavour coming through. A very refreshing beer which went down easy!
