American Dream has a hazy golden body with a medium off-white head. Packed with American hops, it is great for a hot summer day.
Aromas of apricot, grapefruit and peach with flavors of Earl Grey tea, passionfruit and grapefruit.

Bottle from a trade poured into a shaker. Pours a cloudy dark orange with a half finger of white head. Aroma of loads of citrus and some slight pine. Taste is light bitter. Pine and citrus. Light bodied with a thin texture. Lively, almost fizzy carbonation and a long finish. Overall, not bad. I would love to try it out of the bottle, on a hot summer day.

The Canadian Dream 5.5% (bottle) - clear beautiful honey amber colour with a tall white head; aroma of honey, exotic fruit; balanced but predominantly hoppy flavour - almost like a mini-IPA with a clean finish - very nice

Flaske fra Helgø Meny Hundvåg: verden går fremover, nå kan jeg kjøpe en frisk og god Mikkeller på nærbutikken! Full av citrus og furunålsaroma og smak. Herlig, eneste skår i gleden er prisen. Fra fat på Cardinal (M2 okt-14): ai, ai, her er det tropiske frukter og furunål galore - herlige saker. Godt at dette er i "basisutvalget" til Mikkeller.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks Tom L. Clear amber. Aroma of floral and citric hops and some lagery graininess. Flavor has a bit of dry maltiness and a nice citric bitterness. Light to medium-bodied. Nice.

Golden color with white frothy head. Hoppy aroma with citrus and light spices. Fresh hoppy taste with citrus, some caramel and a quite bitter finish.

Single bottle from the LCBO (under the name "The Canadian Dream" with 5.5% ABV.). Best before date written on crown, 09/01/15. Pours a hazy golden-orange colour with a big frothy white head, great retention and dirty foamy lace. Wow... aromas of fresh hops with the grapefruit, pine needles and sweet caramel and bread malts. Medium-bodied, going on the light side, so goes down nicely with a little dryness from the hop. The taste is similar to the nose, with the mild bitter grapefruit hops well-blended with the fruity malts. Seems more like a Pale Ale than a lager for sure.

Skuffet, hadde forventet mer USA humle, men fanget mest opp europeiske toner og bare i moderat mengde. Høh?!

God aroma av citrus, karamall, og sjokolade. lite skum. lys gyllen brun farge. Nydelig frisk smak av citrus og en anelse karamell. Dette minner mer om IPA enn lager. Kjempe godt.

Easily the best lager I’ve had. I didn’t know a lager could be so decent. It’s incredible how many are bad, considering. Pours cloudy amber with great head and lacing. Average carbonation - not too fizzy or belchy. I can’t taste any trace of paint chips or iodine. Brilliant. Who’da thought. Almost like a pale ale, but a lager. With flavour even, and hops. Bottled as the Canadian Dream.

Draught at Q-Brick. Pretty orange -amber color. Great hop nose, clean malts, citrus and grass. Light malt flavor, very hoppy, not all that well balanced, very bitter. Good lager that tastes more like a low-abv IPA. Enjoyable.
