Dark copper pour, small white head. Aroma is veggies, slightly piney hops, and cheap caramel malts. Watery mouth feel, regular carb. Light bitterness, lots of caramels, cooked veggies and light resinous hops. Meh. Nothing to see here. This is just an amber ale.

Draft - Grains and woody bitterness. Clear gold with a small white head. Bitter and some pine notes with a long bitter finish. Old school.

This IPA poured a deep amber colour with a huge off white head. Minimal lacing. Scents include grass, citrus and hay. First swig was quite heavy in the hop department. Other flavours of honey, and caramel. Finish is quite bitter with malt flavour lingering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pours a clean amber colour with a fluffy-creamy warm cap that leaves good lacing. Aromas of caramel malts with red ale notes and cheap hops that gives out this sharp burnt grass unbalanced with toffee, vegetables. The taste is also not well-blended with the veggies, bad grasses, burnt grains and even vanilla. Sounds nice, but it isn’t. The only good thing here is not infected.

A cautionary tale: Once there was a man (old enough to know better) who walked into the LCBO to see what was new in the beer cooler. Once inside, he realized that he had left his phone and access to RateBeer in the car. Undaunted, he picked this can off the shelf and decided that it is always a good idea to try a new Ontario Pale Ale (how bad could it be he rationalizes). With his purchase in hand he returns to his vehicle and looks up the ratings for his new acquisition and notes that they are generally unfavourable. Maybe those folks were just having a bad day he thinks. It turns out he was right;those folks WERE having a bad day - they had bought this beer. Moral of the story: Go back to the car and get your phone. Can from the LCBO. Crystal clear light copper under a thin off white head. Nose is fruit, burnt sugar and paper bag. Medium sweet caramel with just a hint of grassy bitterness and a metallic undertone. Mouth is medium with soft carbonation and a lingering tinny finish. 4/3-/4-/3-/6
