AMBEAR ~ CAMERON’S

Ambear Ale (an Amber Ale) is Cameron’s most awarded beer. Sampled on draught this beer pours a clear dark copper with a generous off white head. The head had great retention and left lovely lacing as it dissipated. Lovely toast, roasted malts and caramel aroma abound along with citrusy-grapefruit hops and dark stone fruit. This brew had a nice complexity to it starting with rich caramel, roasted malts, and a little nuttiness, transitioning to a an American grapefruit-citrus–pine hops and finishing crisp and dry. The bitterness was mild but nicely balanced with the malts. The beer is medium bodied with a creamy and smooth mouthfeel. A pleasant brew, very sessionable.

INTO THE SHADE ~ CAMERON'S

Into the Shade is an award winning saison, receiving the Silver Medal at the Ontario Craft Brewing Awards.  On the breweries website it states this brew has endured higher fermentation temperature than your average beer and uses special yeasts. 

Sampled on draught, the beer poured a hazy pale orange-amber.  It had about a finger of head which dissipated and left good lacing.  The nose contained orchard fruits, lemon, and little spice and wheaty yeast.  The beer itself was quite sweet with a slight sourness. Both the lemon and stone fruits came through with a little spice.  A slight hop bitterness at the end.  Flavourful and aromatic for 5.3%.  Thirst quenching and easy drinking.
