Scared Rabbit from Bow River Brewing
6 years ago
4.5/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 4
On tap at Bow River, pours a hazy golden amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out sweet caramel, subdued resinous hops, and bready notes — get some syrupy notes underneath too. Flavour is very sweet, with toasted caramel, resinous hops, and syrupy malt. Sickly sweet and totally incompetent. Crap.

5.2/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 5
On tap at Bow River, pours a cloudy orange amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out cherry soda notes upfront, with a dry wheaty base. Flavour is full of dry cherry pur�e upfront, with an estery, wheaty profile underneath. Pretty pedestrian and lacking depth. Lame.

Athabasca from Bow River Brewing
6 years ago
5.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 5.5
On tap at Bow River, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of coriander, some orange peel, and banana. Flavour is like a hybrid between a hef and wit, with coriander, orange peel, and banana esters. Not a fan of this combination of styles. Drinkable.

On tap at Bow River, pours a clear amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out sweet caramely malt and braady notes. Flavour is quite malty, with bready malt, caramel, and a little red fruit. A little sweet but it's pleasant.
