2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20Wow... a Coors beer starting for the Canadian market (don’t mind being the testing market). Pours a golden colour with a light hue of amber (almost looking like peach juice). Bubbly white fizzy cap that disappears quickly leaving nothing. The nose is pretty citrusy with oranges and lemon notes. Refreshing watery mouthfeel that has a bit more stick than the normal Coors Light. Mild sweet taste with light peach and the corn showing in the finish. Overall, a decent product for warm summer night and much better than their popular Coors Light. Nice to have flavours associated this brew. Then again, this is Molson’s product (not Coors USA).

Shawn’s right, this isn’t for keeping.... I’ll admit the first time he posted a pic of this on facebook it shot to the top of my mental wants list, after he sent me a bottle I guess I got used to seeing it in my fridge, made me happy every time I opened the fridge... knowing that one day I would get to drink the T Glacé. But that day has come.
The beer pours a pale golden with a big fluffy white head that recedes quickly.
The aroma is reminiscent to a citrus forward witbier... sweet but not in a candy like way, fruity... and a little like suntan lotion (in a good way). There is defiantly an Iced tea character to the nose, but the citrus and fruitiness comes out more.
The flavor is not bad, something about the Iced Tea sort of reconciles the corny and sweet character that makes me not want to drink Coors Light. It’s tart and lemony, lightly sweet but has a light and sharp bitterness. It most defiantly tastes like Iced Tea... but not like high quality black tea that you poured over ice and squeezed a lemon into... but also not like the Iced Tea that comes from a soda fountain. It’s that type of Iced Tea that’s in the middle of those... Like the sort of Iced Tea you would get at a place where you pay $18 for your entree. Iced tea that get’s brewed fresh daily as opposed to tea that get’s brewed to order. It’s enjoyable, refreshing tea.. and it marries well with Coors Light.
I know folks say this all the time, but if this had been made by a "cool kid" brewery folks would hail how refreshing and sessionable the beer is and talk about how well integrated the tea is....
This stuff isn’t amazing but yes, it’s refreshing and sessionable, and the tea is really well integrated. I enjoy this very much. I’d grab a sixer of it now and again if I could.

UPDATED: APR 6, 2013 .rar malt likka ticks, biotch. Hell yeah double A!!! Pour is light clear caramel with a medium white head and decent lacing. Citrusy, lemony, ice tea aroma. Taste is like cold brewed iced tea, lemon zest, sweet nectar, a touch of biscuit, and grass, Light body with high carbonation. Super easy drinking, and an awesome malt likka. #whalezbro

Aluminum bottle @ Stephens house courtesy of blackipa. Fucken a bro. Pours a fairly clear, golden appearance with a small white head. Super sweetened iced tea, ultra cane sugar, lemon, orange fruity aroma. Smells refreshing. A touch grainy, slightly bready, lemony, long island iced tea flavor. Quite drinkable but kind of a joke. I bet this could sell super well on the strip in Vegas.

Fuck yeah, bros. Aluminum screwtop can, even more fuck yeah. Thanks, Shawn! Looks like iced tea. Smells like iced tea. Has kind of a canned Brisk/Lipton lemon tea aroma to it. That’s pretty much it to the aroma. And, it’s pretty much what it tastes like, too. Maybe a little watery. But otherwise, just some sweetened lemon tea drank. Pretty good, actually.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
341ml bottle pours a light golden color with a small white head that leaves virtually no lacing on the glass. Aroma and taste are dominated by iced tea. There is a slight presence of cereal grains and hops, but almost imperceptible. Light bodied with carbonation typical for the style. Overall, this brew is overpowered by the iced tea which makes it less of a beer.
1.5 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 5/20
As a beer, this is terrible, as a standard beverage, it’s not bad. Very refreshing on a summer day, and it actually tastes better with ice. If you like beer, but dont like the taste, this is your beverage.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Canette 355ml. De couleur dorée et claire. Nez de thé glacé en poudre sucré avec de faibles notes herbeuses (herbes mouillées). Mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture aqueuse. Léger goût fruité (citron artificiel) lors de l’entrée en bouche et qui laisse rapidement place à un goût de thé glacé en poudre assez sucré puis en finale l’on retrouve de faibles notes herbeuses (herbes mouillées). Post-goût court, composé d’un goût de thé glacé légèrement sucré avec des traces de grains cartonnés.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
[4577-20120629] 473mL can. Sugary sweet Fun Dip aroma has a bit of a floral flourish. Clear, yellow body with a quick creamy white head. Fresh sweet tea juice flavour continues the floral note. Light body. It’s certainly not bad but it doesn’t make me think of beer either, more like a fizzy cooler. (5/2/5/3/10) 2.5
(w/ jercraigs)
Overheard: "It’s shockingly palatable."
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Well then. Carbonate the hell out of iced T, add just a touch of booze and beer flavor for good measure, and you have this. It’s seriously good. Very refreshing.

Garbage. No, pledge poured on garbage. I wonder why Molson thinks that launching a product like this is good for the brand or the industry. Absolutely terrible stuff.
