No ordinary lager! A Euro-traditional style lager derived from Czech hops.

[1] Review by beercronic from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/5/2008 11:26:58 PM)
"Dumped out of the can into my glass. Got a small amount of bright white head on top of a clear light golden brew, ring retention, a bit of thin, ropy lacing. The aroma is quite mild, pleasantly sweet with a dry grass smell, a touch of apple, a hint of caramel and nice smelling hops. Gotta breathe a bit to deep to hit all this up and that's my only crack on the aroma. Where's the flavour? So mild but still nice. Grassy, drying wheat, weak caramel and a hint of floral hops. The body is just above thin. Softly carbonated, weak bitterness and dry finish. Waaay to watery which is too bad since the flavour here is decent - just need more of it - a lot more."

[3] Review by myke from T-dot, Canada who has tried this beer many times. (5/28/2006 8:36:59 PM)
" The 12 pack I had said it was best before 5/8/06, but I don't think that has any bearing on my impression of this beer. From what I've gathered, expired beer is either skunky or sour. This is neither. What it is is quite watery and what taste is their reminds me of a discount macro. While there is little head to speak of, I do like the deep gold colour to this beer, really the only redeeming value. And now, having said that, I recently tried this on tap, and it's actually better, which is kinda weird."

[4] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (5/28/2005 12:08:22 AM)
"On tap at the Shepherd’s pub: Tapped a golden colour. Moderate cap...soft carbonation... Light doughy malt aroma mixed with light fruit tones. Soft malty, taste in a light/soft mouthfeel. Tasty light lager with a hint citrus and low bitterness. If I closed my eyes I’d have thought this was Neustadt Bruce county lager. A faily light lager...good thirst buster....but nothing distinctive about it.

[5] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (4/27/2005 10:50:15 AM)
"Trailhead Wellington. Dark yellow colored ale with small head and not a whole lot of retention. Aroma is mostly subtle floral malt and very little else. Taste is a balance mix of floral malt with some dryness at the ends. This one lacks character overall and is probably not the best beer from this brewery."
