Still a good beer, but not as malty or hoppy as it was in the past. Just seems to be a little more watery than it used to be. Not as good as it was a year or two ago, unfortunately. mabel (2590), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Orange-brown body with a few tiny bubbles and a quick off-white head. Tastes like grainy bread, especially in the aftertaste. Light-medium body. Distinct flavour that’s not offensive. rederic (1811), montréal, Quebec, Canada

A little dry, with a very signature "canadian beer" taste. The head is medium-thin followed by a lacking palate. Interesting taste of spices for a lager. Not too bad of a brew, but I am yet to be impressed by a lager. Best of its style that I have had JonR888710 (999), Cochabamba, Bolivia
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 23, 2006 I was pretty psyched to try this beer after all the good reviews. It looked great in the glass, cloudy/frothy and with a nice head. Body was yellowish but had a bit of the glowing orange effect I love on lagers. Smell was a little skunky though, and put me off a bit. Taste met expectations though with brilliant consistency and evenness of flavor and texture. Light alcohol... I could really drink a bunch of these I think. One question though, why does the bottle in the picture look like it has a twist off? sinkhole (178), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

Poured brownish-amber with a nice off white head. Flavour similar to bottle but blended together a bit better than the bottle. So I’ve bumped up the appearance and palate a couple of deserving points.
From bottle. Nice subtle aromas of sweet malt and a hint of fruit/florals. This carried through to the flavour, with a small bitter kick at the end. Surprisingly no harsh alcohol finish.
Overall a very nice selection. beerbreath (1), Rockwood, Ontario, Canada does not count | 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 20, 2006 Great little town to stop in for a beer on the way to the beach or skiing.Sweet with a light acohol taste.
