The aroma is bready malt, fresh yeast, citrus peel, and tropical fruit notes. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour isn’t all that well balanced with a lingering bitter finish and flavours of citrus peel which drown out the tropical fruit notes. |

The aroma was roasted malt, nuts, and weak coffee. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with mild carbonation. The flavour was nutty malt with weak chocolate. Not quite watery, but pretty unflavourful. |

484 | Cameron's Reginald Hopburn | Canada | Amber Ale | 3.6
Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7 550ml draught <br> 5.0% ABV <br> I tried this beer on tap September 2, 2011 at "C'est What Brewpub" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a translucent copper colour with an off-white creamy head that disappeared within a couple of minutes. The aroma was a mish-mash of caramel malts, citrus hops, and some earthiness. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour starts off sweet with hints of toffee and caramel, and has a bitter citrusy finish. A pretty good effort by Cameron's. |

485 | Cameron's Rye Pale Ale / Cameron's Recollection Rye Pale Ale | Canada | Rye Beer | 4.1
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9 550ml draught <br> 6.6% ABV <br> C'est What? (Toronto, Ontario, Canada) <br> June 15, 2012 <br> The beer poured a hazed dark gold with a 1" foamy light tan head. The aroma was strong citrus hops (I could smell them while the beer was 3 feet away from me), some grains (although not very rye like), and some spices. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour is heavy on the grapefruit flavours with a nice malt balance, and some zestiness. I can see why this is being hailed as one of the best IPAs in Ontario. |

The mouthfeel was dry, very tart, highly carbonated, and medium bodied. The flavour was tart apples, and some graininess. Very enjoyable. |

493 | Carib Lager | Trinidad and Tobago | Pale Lager | 1.8
Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3 July 23, 2007<br> Smokeless Joe’s (Toronto, Ontario, Canada – 125 John Street)<br> 330ml bottle<br> 5.20% ABV <br> Bottled On: Unknown<br> $5.90<br> The beer poured a translucent pale gold with a 1cm dense head that dissipated very quickly. The aroma was full of corn, wheat and grass. Not at all appealing. The mouthfeel wasn’t as crisp as I was expecting and had a medium-body feel with some carbonation. The taste was thick with corn, and as I was finishing the beer, it got cornier (no pun intended). |

494 | Carling Black Label | Canada | Pale Lager | 3.7
Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 8 November 10, 1990<br> 341ml bottle<br> 5.0% ABV<br> $0.00<br> This was a very good beer. It poured a translucent golden yellow colour into the glass with very little head. The aroma had a malty, earthy aroma...nothing spectacular. The mouthfeel is silky smooth and crisp with some mild carbonation that grabs the tongue in all the right places. The taste was that of a full bodied beer with a malty grainy flavour that lasted through the entire glass. Like the majority of macro lagers in North America, this beer is best enjoyed cold. |

497 | Carling Old Vienna / Molson OV | Canada | Pale Lager | 2.0
Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 4 April 5, 1991<br> Beer Store #4003 (Guelph, Ontario, Canada – Municipal Street)<br> 355ml bottle<br> 5.0% ABV<br> $1.00<br> My goal in June 2007 was to rate all the beer I've tried. That meant rating the bad ones along with the good ones. This is one of the bad ones. Where I went to University, this beer had the raunchy nickname of "'Ol Vag___", but I was not informed of that until after trying it. This is one of the old Carling O'Keefe products (Carling O'Keefe's Ol' Vienna Lager) that was popular in the late 70s and early 80s complete with television commercials. It pours a weak yellow colour with little head. The aroma was very skunky (every time I have tried this). The taste is rather skunky as well, not a friend to the mouth at all. Strong carbonation, and very little discernable maltiness. The more I thought about it, the less I liked it. After a couple, I was able to safely declare it among the worst Canadian beer I had ever tasted. |

The aroma is roasted malt, coffee, and dark chocolate. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is typical of an Irish Stout, dry roasted grains with a hint of coffee and little bit of a spicy finish. |

The flavour was roasted malt, coffee, dark chocolate and had a chalky finish. |
