This IPA poured a slightly cloudy colour with a rocky, off white head. Not bad lacing. Scents include bread, gravy and candy? First swig was a little thin but flavourful. Tastes of malt, dough and hops. Finish is medium bitter with malt goodness lingering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

This Pils poured a cloudy medium yellow colour with a rocky, white head. Little but nice lacing. Scents include corn, old books and malts. First swig was smooth and a little watery with nice hop flavours and always that flavour of corn. Finish is mildly bitter with malts lingering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pours a clean golden colour with a white frothy cap, good retention leaving lots of dirty lacing. Grainy malt aromas with some honey notes, light grass and some fruitiness. The taste has this fruit again over the cereal malts and pils hops. Just a tad thick to be an easy-drinking Euro pilsner, but quite nice overall. Will have to try real cold at a gathering.

Had this one at The Works in Ottawa before a Deep Purple show (2nd Canadian pils of the night - the other being the Garrison). Typical golden brew with a decent white cap and good lace. Nice mild hoppy aromas with cereal grains. Crisp mouthfeel with a malty taste and some bitterness from the hop. Was quite decent with The Works huge burgers. An easy-going pilsener.
