<i>Can</i><br />Beautiful amber color, big head. It has too light aroma, but at least some caramel flavor and a correct bitterness. Simple.

As with their IPA, it’s a more muted form of the overall style. Just a lite touch of caramel and malts. Nothing offensive.

Draught at a restaurant in Truro. Dark amber-red, cream-colored rocky head and scattered lacing. Nutty aroma, woodsy too. Very grassy. Thin. Clean, though. Somewhat nutty with a mild, sweet but not cloying finish.

The beer was okay but kind of lacked taste, almost tasted flat although it was just purchased. I would rather have the IPA &#40;Lager taste&#41; than the red amber.

Had at my bro’s on Labour day following an afternoon of biking. Nothing special about this one, is looks nice with its copper red colour, but very boring finish. I’m sure at one time this was a great beer, but Labatt probably had this one dumbed down for the masses much like what Molson did with Rickards Red.
