Bottle. Creamy white excellent mostly lasting head. Nice hoppy fruity aroma, hints of apple and lemon. Good flavor, moderate bitter finish. Oily palate. Very good premium lager.

On tap at Barrymore’s in Ottawa, Clear golden lager with a thin white head. Grainy malts in aroma. Good malt base, but with an off peppery hops and almost cherry like sour final...infected lager! Medium bodied. Reminded of a pseudo kriek I drank in Vancouver.

Tap: Clear yellow beer with small head with below average retention. Aroma is quite sweet with more or less malt. Taste was quite enjoyable with some refreshing sweetness. Lacking a bit of character and body to make this truly good but better then some other lager that I had the misfortune of drinking over the years.

This beer is a pale yellow with a bright white head that disappears extremly quick. Harsh notes of a Skunks Ass!! Other tha that I can smell a slight vapour of alcohol. A little grain and maybe some sugar??? First taste was a typical pilsner. Almost a corn/hoppy taste to it. Finishes watery with a somewhat clean palate. This reminds me of a glorified Labatt Blue. Just a little better.

Crystal golden colour with a thin white head. Strong aroma of corn, yeast and a bit of wheat. Tastes of corn and a tiny bit of malt. Short aftertaste comprised of corn, a bit of metal and a tiny bit of malt. Overall, not bad, but not worth buying much of. I got this twelve ounce bottle from my friend on a recent trip to Toronto. Evidently you cannot import this beer to the United States because it hasn't been pasteurised? Regardless, I sampled this from a 341 mL bottle purchased in Toronto at the brewery.

This is a pilsner like I'm a Sherpa. Bland, bland, bland. These guys only brew the one product, under the theory that if Creemore can do it, so can they. Difference being that Creemore is a flavourful, quality beer, while Steamwhistle is a cool bottle. Even on re-evaluation, this beer holds little appeal. The odd bit of maltiness, some unhappy English-tasting hops, no body.
