amber in color, duh!
nose is crystal malt, and a touch of hops. Medium malty flavour, pretty basic canadian amber ale, not fancy, but good drinking.

Flight at brewery. Pours clear gold. Aroma has light sweet malts. Flavour has subtle caramel malts, herbs, and dandelion. Very simple, but seems well-made.

Very good pillowy foam on a clear medium copper body. Lots of biscuit and brown sugar on the nose, though one dimensional. Taste is more sweet biscuit, soft brown sugar notes, ending smooth. Very simple but clean and inoffensive.

Beer at the hotel bar Port Au Choix NL Mostly clear deep golden almost amber in color with a bubbly off white head that persists. Rich bready malt with a hint of caramel and some earthy light pine hops to counter. This brewery reminds me so much of the 603 Brewery in NH. They make clean beer but its so gateway and mediocre that its hard to enjoy them.

Bottle thanks to savvy1982. Pours with a mostly clear golden body with a fading off-white head. Not amber at all in color. Aromas of cornbread, grain, sweetness, biscuit and a berry fruitiness. Flavors of of over sweetened cereal, wheat, corn, rotten fruits, cornbread. Lively bubbles. Medium dryness. Slight stickiness on the aftertaste.
