Beer: Hands Up! Tin Whistle brewery

Bill Miner (1847-1913)

"Bill Miner, the first train robber in Canada was known as the 'Gentleman Bandit' because of his good manners during a hold-up. He was also the originator of the phrase 'Hands Up!'"
"On May 8, 1906, he held up the C.P.R. near Kamloops making him a local folk hero. He was later arrested by the Royal North West Mounted Police and sentenced to 25 years in the New Westminster Penitentiary."
"The 1982 Canadian film 'The Grey Fox' was based on Billy Miner's life."

A Raisin Oatmeal Red Ale, this beer has a colour much more typical of what I like. It has a grape like smell that reminds me of something faintly, maybe some grape candy? Tasting I find it much milder then I expected with, as you would expect, a faintly grape taste to it. Surprisingly I find it isn't all that sweet, with a dark and bitter aftertaste. Not all that bad as beers go, but I don't think I'll buy it again.
