The aroma is
mild and comfortable. There is a modest roasted malt aroma and a whiff
of copper. On tap, I found this beer to have an unexpectedly creamy and
velvety mouthfeel--I wonder whether the bottled version is similar in
this respect. This beer has a laid back taste--malty, toasty, and a tad
bready. At the finish, there is a fragile hop swing that adds a measure
of crispness. According to Mill St.'s website, this stuff clocks in at a standard 5% alcohol.
All in all, I liked this beer
just fine. It's not particularly flavourful for an amber lager, but it's
restrained taste is certainly enjoyable. It's not big enough to bring
me back, but I can definitely see how other drinkers could find this
stuff engaging. Fittingly, there was a Tragically Hip song playing as I
finished my review. Not "At the Hundredth Meridian", but still.
Rating: 7.0 out of 10.
