on tap at the toronto beerfest. Kinda harsh in the fact that the green apple tastes very very artificial. not very nice at all.

Lata 50 cl en Cimmeria 29..06.. 2017. (r15). Lote K221611 . 46. Color amarillento pajizo claro transparente con poca espuma blanca. Sabores frescos a refresco de manzana. Ligeros citricos, limas... Todo ello con algo de espuma y carbónico. Todo un refresco de manzana, recuerdos de trinaranjus, con cuerpo ligero fácil de beber. Refrescante poco más.

Can fro the LCBO. Clear pale yellow with a two finger white head that disappears quite quickly leaving some spotty lace. Green apple is prominent in the nose with some light grain. Nice tartness to start which is quickly passed by a cloying sweetness. Medium thin mouth with prickly carbonation. Ok, I’ve tried it; moving on.

Look I knew I wasn’t getting a stellar beer with the reviews, including one of the summer’s lowest rating from my esteemed friend Freaky below (even if it didn’t liken the beer to sweaty balls), but the pickings while visiting the NB brewery were pretty slim... so. After the pour it looks like, well, a fizzy apple juice- clear gold, with white head that fades faster than my parental patience during one of my daughters’ hissy-fits. Smells heavily of sweet apples with a mild malt behind. And the taste is crazy apples with plastic dump truck load of sugar. Oh and some mild malt supporting. This beer may explain the tour group of a dozen women doing a tasting at the NB brewery while I was there. Christ NB, I don’t even give my aforementioned daughters apple juice with added sugar, it sweet enough as-is. This beer is a sugary applet mess.

Draft - Sweet green apple. Pale yellow and a rich white head. Green apple and some light acidity. Not as sweet as it smells but still a little too fruity and juice like.

Bad, bad, bad. Smells a little like cider but mostly sugar candy apple flavor. Taste is an acidic tangy mix of chemicals. Big canned brutal kick in the balls that they must justify by making money from.

Fruit-infused beer can usuall go wrong in so many ways, and it usually does. Yet I’m attracted to them in the hopes that I might uncover something kriek-like, exciting, yet fruity, yet balanced; so I’ll always give ’em a try give ’n the chance. This pours with a tiny head but still present, and a big medium-yellow body with plenty of carbonation. It’s sampled at 8.4 celcius - plenty of sugary fake apple on the nose (yes, I can tell - I’d expect a true "apple pilsner" to have a good balance between a woody cider and a malty lager; not present here). The flavour is sweet and fake apple with a slightly malty and woody dry taste; still all rather unnatural. Drinkable nonetheless, but I could see where this style could go - and it’s a long way from there.
