Bottle in NH. Pours clear, light amber-gold with a mild, creamy off-white head. The nose has simple bready malts and ripe berries. Medium sweet flavor with sugary bread, brown sugar, light caramel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Sweet finish, more sugary and bready malts, caramel, no bitterness. Somewhat tasty but I wouldn’t want to drink a ton of this.

Bottle @ home tossed via courtesy of BlackIPA. Tasted during the Pussypete presents Molson/Labatt Grand Tasting 2013 in my parent’s basement. Cheers! Pours a clear dark burnt orange appearance with a light brown head. Toasted malty, caramel, a bit nutty, light espresso aroma. Slightly watery, a touch earthy, coffee, burnt malty flavor. Actually not overly bland like the others in the mixer pack but still not very good.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a caramel-brown color with a large foamy tan head that left a bit of lacing. The aroma was tart, tangy and malty with an undertone of cherry soda. The flavor was tangy and malty with notes of caramel, cherry, raising and a hint of toasty malts. Medium length tangy malty and cherry finish. Medium body. Eh.

Crisp copper glow with a touch of a ruby (perhaps) tint and a relatively small one centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of pale malt, alcohol, earth and not much else. Light-bodied; Sharp metallic notes with some malt, earth, caramel and a strong deep spicey flavour that coats the palate. Aftertaste is deep and strong and not in a good way - the malt and metal are the strongest tastes with a touch of sugar making it palateable but the alcohol remains strong. Overall, not such a great beer - but that’s frankly what I expected - still a neat looking throwback bottle with some good memories of Canada. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 22-April-2012 for US$1.35 sampled at home in Washington on 31-May-2012.
