Not bad, not mind-blowing either. Western is an example of a rural NL microbrewery that had to make some changes to their operations based on customer input. Everything works well in Port Rexton for Port Rexton Brew Co.; the Bonavista peninsula is a bit of a hipster mecca, and their beers work. On the west coast near Corner Brook not so much. They were forced to make a beer that "tastes like beer", and as such just made a boring cream ale and called it "BEER" to satisfy the local palate. A risk you take when opening a microbrewery in smaller areas.
Bitter is good. They also make a stout, pale ale, and New England style Pale Ale. |
Trying it.  Love the merb'y logo! Cashier and security guard said they're selling VERY well.
