The aroma is light citrus, biscuit grains, light yeast, and weak spice notes. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is bitter citrus, toasted caramel, biscuit grains, and a weak bitter hop finish. Decent, but not worth trying again!

August 7, 1997<br> Gift<br> 341ml bottle <br> 5.0% ABV<br> $0.00<br> A beer for a summer vacation, and one of the earliest 'craft' beers I tried. This beer had an aroma that reminded more of rye than wheat. It was a nice golden colour when poured. It is smooth to the tongue and is smooth tasting. I would certainly recommend this beer to somebody wanting to try a decent wheat beer without paying through the nose.

473ml can&#60;br&#62; 4.0&#37; ABV&#60;bv&#62; Best Before: January 20, 2020 &#60;br&#62; LCBO Outlet #010 &#40;Toronto, Ontario, Canada – Summerhill&#41;&#60;br&#62; November 28, 2019&#60;br&#62; &#36;2.60&#60;br&#62; The beer pours a translucent shiny yellow with a short-lived bubbly white head and plenty of effervescence. The aroma is very “Wink” like &#40;for those who don’t know, Wink was a grapefruit flavoured soft drink in the 1970s and 80s&#41; with some weak grains. No real hops that I can discern. The mouthfeel is light bodied, with average carbonation. The flavour is quite grainy, not a lot of grapefruit to be found. Still, add Alcool to a bottle of Wink, and this is the resulting child&#33;

September 30, 2006<br> Gift<br> 341ml bottle<br> 5.00% ABV<br> $0.00<br> This was the free beer provided by a participant at the 2006 hockey pool. Decent aroma, but nothing to write home about. Slightly malty. The colour was an almost reddish colour. It felt 'perky' on the tongue, but the favour didn't thrill me.

The frothy white cap lasts a while and laces beautifully. Aroma is wheat, citrus, light spices, and yeast. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation.

It pours a hazed medium gold colour with a generous foamy off-white head which lasts throughout. The aroma is very yeasty, definitely a Belgian influence here, followed by notes of tropical citrus juices, and a hint of biscuit malts. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. First thing I taste is pine resing, which gives way to some grain notes, followed by some tropical fruit juice flavours, almost similar to ‘Five Alive’. Still not a fan of these juice bombs…..I want beer, not breakfast juice&#33;

The aroma was fresh bread, toffee, and herbs....but nothing citrusy. The mouthfeel was light to medium bodied with less than average carbonation. The flavour was awful...to put it mildly. Hints of caramel at the start, followed by notes of dirty water, with a bitter metallic finish. No lemon in the taste for me either. Not one to buy again.

The aroma was burnt toast, some sweet malt, and a weak hint of hops. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavour was burnt toast, and sweet malt. Not much rye character in this beer. More like a brown ale gone wrong.

The aroma was weak pumpkin, caramel, and herbal hops. The bottle says spices as an ingredient, but I'm not feeling them aromatically. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation.

The aroma is dark fruit, molasses, and grains. The mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied with below average carbonation. The anise notes really pop in the flavour along with dark fruit, molasses, and the pepper pops in the finish. A fuller mouthfeel and more carbonation and this would have been a very good beer.
