2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Canned sample. Golden in colour with medium carbonation. Aromas of slightly sticky pale malts, and a wiff of grassy hops. Simplistic pale malt flavors to start, followed by some harsh/husky grain notes, with a solvent-like finish. Pretty basic stuff.... vaguely drinkable.

For me this beer represents home, purely emotional since I live about 10 k’s from the brewery.
This is a decent beer for a decent price, something you can drink every day. It’ll give you no headaches, no stomach problems due to an excess of carbonic acid and has a proper taste to alcohol ratio.
It’s definitely a Pilsener (Lager) but isn’t as light as the well known lagers as Heineken/Fosters/Carlsberg/Stella.
Very drinkable at room temperature.

Standard pils, nothing to stand out but just a drinkable, boozy european pilsner.

355ml bottle, found in the bottom of the fridge. Even 5 months past its b/b date still in decent shape. A little bit adjunt based, corny but still better than most in a gree n bottle that end up in this country.

...big bottle. Cheap, decent hop notes, with slight malt flavor. Lacking body, but worth a try due to the low price. Good for binge drinking, hahaha.

2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 6/20
12oz bottle. Clear, pale yellow with medium-sized, white head. The aroma is light with some floral hop notes and some graininess with a touch of corn (DMS?). The flavor is lightly grainy and lightly sweet with a subtle bready character and some noble hop flavors. The finish is balanced with some muted bitterness and is dry and crisp. The mouthfeel is well-carbonated but not spritzy, and the body is light to medium in fullness. Overall, a lightly-flavored, pale, Eurpoean lager - like countless others...

500 ml can from LCBO, just another generic Eurolager. Similar to Heineken, slightly more enjoyable though since there was not as much skunk and priced better as well.
