Creemore Springs Hop & Weizen Hefeweizen at 4.7% ABV _(C$3.57 at NLC Stavanger, 473 ml, no bottle date or best before, acquired 4-Jun-2016, reviewed 4-Jun-2016)_
Appearance: translucent pale gold with one finger of loose white head, good retention and patchy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: banana, yeasty wheat, bubblegum, citrus, tropical fruit, cloves. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, mild bitter, light spice. (7/10) Medium-light body, lively carbonation, off-dry short duration slightly spicy finish. (3/5)
Somewhat more Weizen than West Coast – though, truth be told, there’s not really an overabundance of either. (And, given that it’s a whopping 5 degrees above freezing here today – in June! – perhaps I’d be better off with a porter or stout!) Fact is, it’s a fairly pleasant hefe, easy to drink, and surprisingly good for a Molson product. (14/20)
