Cameron's Auburn Ale

Brewed by: Cameron's Brewing Company
Brewed at: Oakville, Ontario, Canada
Type: Ale
A/V 5%

First Impression
Even though the design looks just like every other Cameron's beer bottle I find this one to be very attractive. Metallic copper, gold, and pale yellow it seems to work really well as a whole. It really looks delicious! Nice deep brown liquid, just a hint of red and very little head.

First Sip
It smells fantastic! A bouquet of nice and toasty malts. But crisp, clean, citrusy hops on the tongue!

Halfway
It's a sandwich beer! With all the malts and toastiness on the nose followed by fresh bold hops and just a little bitter, the back palate malty character is just as good as the rest of it!

Bottoms up
A vigorous start has sort of fizzled. Sadly. It's a decent beer but it doesn't have a heck of a lot going on from start to finish.
Uniquely this beer gets less interesting as it warms up. Where a rising temperature tends to unlock different flavors in beer, this one doesn't let any secrets out, it just gets warmer... and tastes the same.

64/100
