This cream ale poured a slightly hazy, golden colour with a minimal amount of lacing. Scents include corn, grain, honey and a little must. First swig was a little thin and sweet with flavours of corn, perfume and cardboard. Finish is sweeter with corn and cereal flavours lingering.

Nice hops, nice malts. Bright, no fruity eaters, no rice. Decent stuff. I was surprised.

Wheat notes nowhere to be found..... Loaded full of fake fruit aromas and flavours. Borderline cloyingly sweet, artificial. Low bitterness, few redeeming qualities.

Can from the lcbo. Clear pale yellow pour, with a small white head. So here we have the most borinf style of beer imaginable here.... The dreaded, boring as f, cream ale. Well this one has vanilla added. So now, we have a buttery diacetyl mess of a beer, with some weird must cereals and vanilla added. It's a buttery glass of vanilla flavoured beer. Yum!

Impressive milk chocolate notes.... Soft vanilla and nuttiness. Nice mouth feel, medium bitterness. Roasty, nutty.... Quite nice.

Fairly clean amber colour with a golden highlight. The slightly beige head is bubbly with quick stay and not much lacing. Full tropical fruity aromas with the passion fruit and guava. The flavours continues with the fruitiness, and the tropical ones calm down, and the orange comes out. Citrus zest light bitterness and dryness lingers. The wheat blends some mild sweetness with the fruit, but does not add to the richness. Just a refreshing, tropical fruitiness beer.

Clean copper colour with ruby highlights. The head is huge, creamy-frothy, warm beige coloured with good stay and thick fluffy lacing. Rich aromas of peanut butter over chocolate malts. Nut free, heh?! I guess they are essences, hence how strong and no clumping peanut chucks. The nuttiness is milder in the taste with cacao hints and some grassy hops that appear. The dryness created cuts the sweetness. The rich aromas do calm down after breathing, and some hints of pretzel do come out. Quite an interesting choco-peanut stout with enough hops.

Can that pours a clean, light golden colour with a creamy white cap, good retention and some nice creamy lacing. Mild grassy, spicy hop nose with a touch of diacetyl in the background, and some yeast, bubblegum. The taste shows the decent, fresh grassiness from the spicy hops in the nose, but then - some rich vanilla notes appear. Again, I get some bubblegum. Nothing too offensive, but nothing really balanced here.
