2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 jerc (5580) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - APR 12, 2012
2012-04-01. Hazy pastel golden yellow, large frothy white head fades. Sweetish aroma of lemon soda, muted grains and pale malt. Flavour is similar, sweet sugary lemon soda character up front, mild pale grainy malt. Average to light bodied palate. Not much to say about this, it does what it sets out to do, and I can see it being refreshing on a hot day but from a beer perspective its pretty mild and bland, with the lemon being the only significant flavour. Inoffensive while chilled. Can from the LCBO, Toronto
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20 pushkinwow (864) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 22, 2012
Can - unfortunately it looks quite similar to the waterloo dark so be careful...this was not what I was expecting and would not even describe it as beer. Clear, very pale yellow with an off white head. Light lemonade but sweet and artificial, although not overwhelming. High carbonation, light mouthfeel, not beer at all - an artificially flavoured mess. Now if you like that kind of thing then try it - otherwise avoid it.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 cyrenaica (799) - Milton, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 16, 2011
473ml can
4.8% ABV
I tried this beer/alcoholic concoction on July 24, 2011 after purchasing from the Queen’s Quay LCBO outlet. The beer poured a translucent medium gold with a generous white head. The aroma was all lemon, and fake lemon at that. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was very lemony with some grainy nalt mixed in. This would be quite refreshing if the taste was better.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 blankboy (4437) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 26, 2011
Can [473ml]. I’m not expecting great things here but here goes: Pours a clear pale gold with an average size lasting frothy white head. Aroma of sugar and artificial lemon along with grain and pale malt. Flavor tastes like a mediocre (at best) pale lager mixed with some lemon soda, leaning more on the soda side -- could be refreshing I guess but it’s not my thing. Light bodied. Like I said, this isn’t my thing and since it’s also not on style there’s not much to recommend here.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 Trev (1487) - Lakeville, Minnesota, USA - AUG 29, 2011
Can: Pour is pale gold with a thin but lasting head.
aroma is shandy/radler. Lemon soda and light beer.
Dryish biscuity body with weak lemon flavour.
Only had a few radlers, this one is ok.

Pours a light golden colour with a medium fizzy head which leaves a nice lacing. aroma is lemonade similar to a white beer. Taste is a light lemonade sweetness and light beer. would be nice on hot day

2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 gilvanblight (565) - Windsor, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 12, 2011
Not sure why Waterloo isn’t in the name on here. This took some work to find. Extremely heady beer. Tons of thin white foam. Very sweet scent. Smells like a pop more then a beer. Very unique. Even the head is sweet. I’m not a big fan of mixed ’beers’, though I have to say the overall taste is rather good. I can see this as being rather refreshing. Right now I’m rating beer, it’s not so great, but it would be very refreshing if I needed to be refreshed. Next time I have a pool party I may be buying some of this.
