5.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
A golden amber ale with a thin white head. Aroma of nutty malts and oily solvents. In mouth, not too bad, a nutty malt with some nice clean biscuitty notes, mundane. Correct.

(473 ml can) light amber colour; medium white head; aroma: hint of apricot, grain; taste - weak, watery, still clean and refreshing, just not much character and no depth

5.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 4.5
Perfect definition of copper coloured body with a nice sized (two centimetre tall) tan head. Aroma of super strong and fragrant raspberries, a bit of wheat and a large amount of sugar. Medium to Light-bodied; Pungent and assertive metallic and off-tasting malt up front that fades to a decent raspberry finish with caramel and once again, a tiny bit of wheat/malt in the mix. Aftertaste is a foul bitter flavour with some minor raspberries and caramel too. Overall, not a great beer by any means, but not horrible and by far not the worst fruit beer I’ve had. I sampled this 473 (odd size) mL can purchased from the LCBO (Summerhill) in Toronto, Ontario on 11-October-2009, sampled back home on the American side of the border in Washington on 21-October-2009.

Bottle: Poured a light amber color lager with an average size head with good retention but no lacing. Aroma of caramel malt is quite refreshing. Taste is also dominated by some caramel malt with not much discernable hops. Body is average with good carbonation. Not the most complex of beer but well done for what it is supposed to be.

Bottle: Poured a deep golden color ale with a good size foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of lightly sweet malt with some light fruity notes as well. Taste is also a mix between some light sweet malt (couldn’t detect any wheat in there though) with some light fruit syrup added to the mix. I would be really surprise if there was any pomegranate in there; it is more likely that some syrup was use.

6.3/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Medium to dark amber, with a low off-white head. Relatively fragrant aroma of dark malts, wheat, raspberry and hops: neither the wheat nor the fruit is in control here--good balance, sour and sweet. Taste is berry, with sweet and sour, dark malts, caramel, wheat and a touch of hops. Interesting combination, not strong on the wheat. The raspberry is a little fake tasting, but otherwise pretty decent. Finish of malt and sour fruits, with a touch of hops only. An interesting fruit beer with a lot going on. Not perfect or even outstanding, but enjoyable enough.

This Wheat beer poured a cloudy light orange colour with a rocky bright white head. To the nose there are scents of raspberry jam, yeast and sweet malt. First taste had a very strong purfume taste that didn’t really go away. Very thin as far as the mouthfeel went. This beer is lacking something. Watery finish with nothing but cheap purfume lingering.

4.9/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 3.5
Bottle: Poured a clear golden color lager with a big pure white foamy head with medium retention and no lacing. Aroma if quite refreshing with a light sweet malt profile. Taste is also quite one-dimensional with some medium sweet malt and very subtle floral notes. This beer was as easily drinkable as it is easily forgettable.
