Faint hop smell. Sweet flavor, not much hop taste except in aftertaste. Cask ale on tap at the brewery.

Sweet aroma, almost a combination between a light lager aroma and hops. Sweet bite with a slight hop harshness. Leaves a moderately sweet aftertaste. A bit too much edgy hop bitterness. Label says it’s an unfiltered IPA with falconers flight hops.

Slightly sweet aroma with a bit of malt smell. Crisp flavor that’s refreshing, not very hoppy. Followed by a nice even malt flavor then very little aftertaste. Bottle says unfiltered IPA with cascade hops.

Nice sweet, sharp hop aroma. Crisp, hop sweetness that instead of a dry hop bite on the end of it, has a milky sweet smoothness. Further drinks have a complex combination of hop sweetness, hop dryness, and a malty caramel taste. Quite interesting. Especially for a Canadian beer.

Creemore Springs Altbier Collaboration Ale
Dry, sweet, hoppy smell. Crisp flavor with equal balance of hop and malt. Aftertaste is very clean malt taste, with lingerings of hop sweetness in the background. Without the slight sweetness, would be almost identical to the Dusseldorf alt beers.

Asahi Super Dry
Sweet aroma. Sharp bite combined with sweetness, which quickly fades and just leaves a kind of mouth-watering effect in your mouth. On bigger gulps, get a slight malt taste. Overall a big flavor rush that is fairly easy drinking. Got better add it warmed, killing of the overly sweet taste and just left the malt predominant. This 500ml can was from LCBO in Canada and labeling says it was actually brewed in Japan. Bought it on December 8th, date code on bottom reads “U/0126C H013”. I’m guessing that means Julian calendar date 126- or 126th day of the year.

A bit harsh and resin-y. Too much darkness flavor for me.
