Bottle: Poured a deep clear brown color altbier with a nice large foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma of light caramelized malt with dry cereal notes. Taste is quite refreshing with nice notes of caramelized malt and dry cereal with very subtle lingering sweetness. Body is about average with good carbonation. Well brewed for style and pleasantly drinkable.

Very light, bright yellow body with a decent sized and solid head. The aroma is well-crafted German hoppiness. The flavour is like drinking a pile of swamp water with a carbonated hoppy finish. There’s an awkward flavour to this that’s neither good nor bad, but certainly odd. You’ll either like it or hate it. Me? I didn’t like it.

Draught at Mike’s Place, Carleton University, Ottawa. Rich yellow color, clear appearance, very small off-white foamy head, high carbonation, slightly bitter, hoppy taste, abrupt finish. Liked it.

Originally rated May 2008. Nice... a fairly new brewery from my Franco-Ontarien region. Certified organic malts and local springwater. Comes in a off-white ceramic 750ml bottle. Pours a light yellow colour that is slightly hazy with a good frothy head that disappears slowly and dirty lace remains. The organic malts really shows in the aroma and the grainy taste. Crisp mouthfeel. Quite a different lager, but very nice and refreshing.
