🌍 Canada · Light Lager · One of 31 Light Lagers in hopIQ

Copper-coloured for a light lager, which is the point: the recipe leans on the house amber malt instead of stripping the beer back. A light floral hop bouquet sits over soft malt in the nose, and the palate stays slim without turning empty, with a touch of bready sweetness and a restrained European hop spice behind it. It closes clean and crisp, the bitterness kept low. Bitterness and body are both dialled back, but the amber malt keeps it from reading as a stripped-down lager.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Creemore Springs Light Lager

Appearance

A noticeably copper hue for a light lager, achieved through the deliberate use of house amber malt rather than the typical pale grain bill. The beer presents clear and bright, with a modest white head that settles to a thin collar. Carbonation is present but restrained, befitting the beer's overall refined character.

copper-tonedclearfine carbonation

Aroma

The nose leads with a delicate floral hop bouquet, light and inviting without assertiveness. Underneath lies a soft, clean malt base that reads as gentle and approachable. The amber malt contributes a subtle sweetness that sits comfortably behind the hops, avoiding any heavy or cloying impression.

Taste

The palate enters lean and clean, with a touch of bready sweetness developing in the mid-palate from the amber malt backbone. European hop spice arrives as a restrained note rather than a dominant feature, balancing the malt without aggression. The bitterness is deliberately held back at 18 IBU, creating a beer that feels complete rather than stripped.

Finish

The finish closes clean and dry with no lingering sweetness or harsh edges. A whisper of hop spice and clean malt aftertaste remains refreshing without drying the palate.
