341ml bottle pours a golden color with a 2 finger white head that settles quite quickly leaving a few spots of lacing behind. Aroma is cheap grains and faint hops with a little bit of skunkiness. Taste is light malt sweetness with a bit of grassy hops and skunk. Terrible beer.

Great, easy drinking beer. I have only had it in Newfoundland so I will drink it anytime I’m having cod cheeks again.

Tessic (609) - Brantford, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 26, 2010
This lager poured a crystal clear, light yellow colour with a really fast dissipating, bright white head. to the nose there are scents of corn, a little skunk, sour ??? First taste was like water. "East coast, White Bread muck" to be exact. Light malt flavour followed by a nice metallic taste.... do I really need to say more.

Had years ago in St. John’s (Newfoundland) when I ponied up to the bar and asked for "something local". Lo and behold, a forgettable malty experiment that is hard to differentiate from anything else that Molson’s has made.... though this one was a bit darker, more of an amber-style beer than a pale lager thing. It did the trick, and for awhile I mistook it for a microbrew, but in fact it’s hard to give much respect to.

From about 30 years ago, I tasted this brew (a college pal of me used to wear the bottle caps as medals as a joke) - Yeah, it tasted pretty much like any macro-brew, but it wasn’t bad.

Lady_Bastet (113) - Burlington, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 27, 2010
A very bland macro lager overall. I wish I could rate it higher for sentimental reasons but I simply can’t do it. It lacked any personality and the taste was slightly bitter. It had a light body, thin texture and was too fizzy for me, and I like a good amount of carbonation typically. The finish was abrupt. Disappointing, unfortunately.

Vertical Bacon Strips (1612) - Asshat, Alberta, CANADA - JUN 14, 2009
Bright gold brew with an off white cap, really good lacing, a good ammount of carbs and some unfiltered floaties. Aroma was pretty stinky, like cheap grainy malts, barley, lawn and some sweetness. Overall it’s pretty much in line with other cheap Canadian brews. Taste was malty and dry with some yeast. You can notice some chemicals and a small ammount of hops. Medium bodied with a somewhat rough feel with some sour bitterness in the middle. Ends dry. I don’t mind this beer one bit.
