Saturday Night - Stack Brewing (Canada - Ontario - Sudbury)

Saturday Night - Stack Brewing (Canada - Ontario - Sudbury) 5.3%

A yummy cream ale. There a few mild fruit esters and a bit of a bitter bite at first which fits with a British style Cream Ale, and then a creamy mouthfeel supplemented with a strong nutty malt flavour, a bit like sunflower seeds, that I find extremely appetizing. This beer is fairly light, refreshing but with a satisfying malty body. A good ale on a summer day: pairs easily with all kinds of foods, thirst quenching, tasty and lends itself to big gulps.

Berthold Keller Premium Lager - Martens (Belgium)

Berthold Keller Premium Lager - Martens (Belgium) 5.0%

The aroma is malty, has dry hops and quite a lot of grain. Gold in a glass. A very nutty flavour that tastes exactly like plain roasted sunflower seeds. A touch of grain and sweetness in a way that reminds me of multigrain toast. Not really much of any hops taste that I expected from a Euro Lager but the is just enough bitterness to balance it nicely. A good very lager, reminiscent of a English Pale Ale in its nuttiness. Also the graphic design of the cool blue coloured can with slick post-modern lettering is very nice.
