Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

500ml bottle <br> 7.7% ABV <br> I tried this beer on March 2, 2012 after purchasing from the Queen's Quay LCBO outlet in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a hazy gold colour with a generous snow white rocky head. Aroma is yeast, wheat, banana, and spices. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour is sweet malt, some yeast, and some fruit tones. Tastes great. If only wheat beers looked better!

473ml can <br> 4.20% ABV <br> Main / Bronte LCBO Outlet (Milton,. Ontario, Canada) <br> August 11, 2018 <br> $3.25 <br> The beer poured a hazed light orange-gold colour with absolutely no head....none! The aroma was orange citrus, yeast, and surprising light caramel notes. The mouthfeel was on the thin side with average carbonation. The flavour was tart fruit, still tasted like an orange to me, some grany malt, and a definite yeasty note. Not really my thing, but a well made product.

The first aromas to hit me are those of grapefruit and oranges, then some cereal malt and yeast. The mouthfeel is thin bodied with below average carbonation. The first thing I taste is tart citrus, and an almost oniony flavour. Not a lot of grains in the flavour, just tart citrus.

335ml can &#60;br&#62; 4.8&#37; ABV &#60;br&#62; Canned On: July 3, 2019&#60;br? LCBO Outlet #457 &#40;Toronto, Ontario, Canada – Yonge &#47; Eglinton&#41;&#60;br&#62; October 1, 2019&#60;br&#62; &#36;3.95&#60;br&#62; The beer pours a translucent ruby red with a thin pink film for a cap. The aroma is tart fruit including cherries, apples, and raspberries with hints of grass, and herbal hops. The mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied with average carbonation. I’m not sure what beer the other reviewers had, but the contents of my can are very tart, so tart it actually tastes like vinegar with weak notes of black currant. I’m not impressed.

2314 Great Divide Strawberry Rhubarb United States Wild Ale 3.4

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

The rhubarb is overpowering in the armoa leaving only hints of grass, herbal hops, and weak yeast in the background. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour tastes like a nice balance between a blonde lager and a strawberry rhubarb pie, and I love strawberry rhubarb pie. There are hints of grass, and a bitter hoppy finish, but this is pie in a beer glass.

The aroma is heavy on the citrus, with hints of grass, yeast, and funk. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is dominated by the tart citrus notes and the yeast, Nothing about this beer screams ‘IPA’ but it’s good nonetheless.
