Pint on tap while at the brewpub pours a nice brown color with a small off-white head and some thin lacing. Aroma is light roasted malts and a hint of chocolate. Taste is light roasty bitterness and a hint of chocolate with some malty sweetness and a light hoppy bitter finish. The body is a little thin for the style and carbonation is light as well. Would have scored it higher had there been more body, otherwise this beer was pretty tasty.

Had this on tap, from a growler, and from a can in the span of 3 days. Obviously best straight off tap. A nice brown with a good malty backbone. there are hints of chocolate and a fair dose of nuttiness. Something feels a bit weak to me.

humulushound (244) - British Columbia, CANADA - APR 10, 2010
Pours chestnut brown and tan-headed from growler. Still has that fresh draft smell, earthy, roasted nuts, light caramel and coco. Taste is nuts and brown sugar with a hint of spicy hops in the finish. Body is a little thin for my liking but, overall, this is a pleasing ale that doesn’t require to much thought to drink.

VertBaconStrips (2206) - Asshat, Alberta, CANADA - OCT 25, 2009
On tap. Boring weak colour with a white cap. Ok hops and weak coffee filter smell, light roast and comes across airy. The taste has more coffee filter, slight chocolate, tons of malts, some complexity but light overall. Good bitter level, finish is off but decent. Another pint would have a good idea.

Oakes (13660) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - MAY 5, 2007
Light chestnut brown. Sugar, very nutty, slightly molassesy aroma. The body is a bit thin...mainly nut flavour but needs sugar to become fully realized.

presario (4901) - Stampede City, Alberta, CANADA - APR 22, 2007
Stu mentioned that the Pale had at first been a little rough but had smoothed out over time. I thought this beer was still harsh and Stu said it was rather young. They have only made 20 batches and have been open but 3 months so it may be worth a visit in the fall. Almost reddish brown. Surprisingly quiet nose for the number of malts. Strong malt flavour but a sharp rough finish almost like paint thinner.
