6 pack from the local beer store. ok, well i must admit off the bat, i’m comming into this rating with very low expectations. Trafalgar is notorious for infected brew, and when the beer isnt infected, its pretty bland and wattery.
With that said, this is quite nice!
small off white head, decent retention for a trafalgar beer. nice sweet maltiness, even breadiness in the aroma. Flavour is crisp, nutty and malty, with a slight bitterness, and really nice carbonation. this is a nice beer.

Bottle: Poured a clear light amber color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma of unrefined grain and weird vegetable aroma is really not pleasant. Taste is also a spectacular mess between some unrefined grain and weird cereal notes with are top-off by some rotten vegetables. This one ended up in the drain quiet fast – can’t believe the LCBO is still willing to distribute this crap.

Originally rated June 2005. I still have to find a Trafalgar brew that I like. This one starts badly, as it seems to be outdated. It pours an amber-red colour with a bubbly tanned head. Foamy lacing is not too bad. Slight caramel malt aroma. The taste is that sour outdated mouth... that I hate so much with brews that just don’t sell. The rest of the real taste is the regular Trafalgar ale taste. Nothing special, very boring actually. Can’t wait to finish all of their brews and never go back to them.

Well then! Shipped up from down south, well damn these beers ain’t cheap.. but nonetheless I give ’em a try, tryin’ to see if they’’re worth the effort to ship up by air to the high (yeah, high) arctic. Poured at 6.6c, this one has very little head and a brown-copper body. The aroma is faint malts. Flavour is a forgettable bunch of malt and barley, smooth but not complex at all. Drinkable for sure, but a little too easy. It needs more.

This ale pours a dark reddish orange and after 3 min the head has totally disappeared. Some fruit to the nose, a little metallic too. Also some sugary sweet malts. First sip was flat and malty. Nothing extravagant. Slightly watery. The finish was sweet and the palate was almost cardboard like. Sub Par.
