Pale Wheat Ale (Summer Ale) - Samuel Adams - $2.25 (stolen from beer fest)

Mood: just wanted to experiment and try it. (Stolen from beer fest)

Where to Buy: LCBO

Price: $13.60 (6pack)

Beer Type: pale wheat ale

Ingredients: lemon peel, grains of paradise, malted wheat.

Country: USA

%: 5.5%

ml: bottle

Appearance: Wheaty. Dark golden.

Smell: wheaty, but with a hint of lemon zest

Taste: light. Nothing too strong or overpowering. All pretty balanced. Hint of spice and cooked lemon. Very neutral though. Not many bubbles either (wasn't chilled)

Mouthfeel: bubbly, turns into velvety bubbles, stays strong to the cooked lemon taste on mouth (doused in beer!)

Finished: spicy aftertaste, also tastes like cooked lemon aftertaste. Stays with you in mouth. Not harsh or strong though, also quite a neutral/bitter finish (like the neutral smoothies!)

Overall: surprisingly good due to its neutral flavour.  Not a beer to drink if really craving one, doesn't really have a beer taste, more a subdued flavour.  I would definitely buy this if it is an option for summertime drinking.

Lager - Dragon stout - $1.90

Mood: Craving some good sweetness. Aka dragon stout!

Where to Buy: LCBO

Price: $1.90 (=0.10) $2.00

Beer Type: European Lager Beer

Calories: 220 (WHAT!!!??? Holy eff!)

Ingredients: Black malt; corn syrup; caramel malt; and hop extract. Priming sugar used when bottling. (No wonder its sweet!!!)

Country: Jamaica

%: 7.5

ml: 300

Appearance: dark stout colour, with a great white cappuccino head...

Smell: Stout, plus a package of sugar.

Taste: sweet stout. I've had stout once before this (winter beard cranberry chocolate beer) and I wanted to barf. This is like the ice wine of beers. I'm in love. It's like I sucked on a piece of fudge and drank a bit of beer.

Mouthfeel: how I like it, semi carbonated, heavy. Pillowy.

Aftertaste: Stout + sweet. Very pleasant, but heavy. Not really a summer beer.

Overall: this is definitely in its own category, and winning against itself. It's sickeningly sweet just how I like it, but definitely not a beer to drink with any sort of food, except dessert, maybe... Who am I kidding... It's its own dessert!!!

9.5/10 (the last 0.5 is missing because its like 4 million calories.)

Lager - Tatra - $1.85

Mood: Just got home from working with mosaic at a good leafs game. Been craving beer all week!

Where to Buy: LCBO

Price: $1.85 (=0.10) $1.95

Beer Type: European Lager Beer

Calories: 110 (bottle)

Ingredients: malted barley, choicest hops, and pure mountain spring water

Country:Poland (brewed by Heineken International)

%: 5.5

ml: 500

Appearance: "pale" ale. Aka: bright yellow. White head that disappears right away!

Smell: Smell's like beer but a little sweeter. Like if a Heineken and Strongbow had a baby.

Taste:Not bad. Tastes beer-y like I like, goes down full and slightly bitter (not in a bad way), there is a mild bitterness on the palate with each sip, from start to finish. Ends sweet and cider-y. Also, like if a Heineken and Strongbow had a baby.

Mouthfeel: pillowy, not too carbonated (my favorite), let it sit in your mouth and it turns slightly creamy.

Aftertaste: Beer + sweet. Good aftertaste. Subconscious bitterness, it is but a remnant. As you keep drinking the can it gets sweeter and sweeter and more like strongbow (also happens the longer the aftertaste).

Overall: Comparable to Faxe (as in I like!). A good beer. Will try different variations (light/amber/dark) if available. Nice. Not too buzzed after, which means even with the higher alcohol content, it's still a light beer.
