473ml can
5.3% ABV
I tried this beer on March 12, 2008 after purchasing from one of the local LCBO outlets. The poured a translucent gold colour with a generous head that quickly disippates. The aroma was very malty with some slight hoppish hints. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was very grainy, with very little bitterness.

Jun 25, 2008 473 mL can courtesy of matt7215. Thanks! Golden color with a big creamy head that does diminish quite quickly. Aroma is bitter pils with some grain and skunk. Very sweet with a grassy, bitter finish.. Very sweet.

Jun 18, 2008 Pours a deep golden straw color with a moderate head. Grassy aroma overall, fainter traces of peppery hops and earth. Pretty full and slightly sweet flavor or pepper, dirt, hay, a sweeter than normal pilsner malt flavor. Good spicy and flavorful hop finish. Beer felt plenty full for the style and had lots of flavor.

Jun 16, 2008 Tallboy can from 8-pack, no bottles yet? Deep bronze-yellow with minimal foam. Very grainy aroma, taste and feel, with just enough tang and bitterness for my liking.

May 17, 2008 341 mL bottle. Standard hoppy pilsner aroma with some malt, though a little flat. Nice golden colour, with a decent white head that disappears pretty quickly. Hop flavour with a clean finish without bitterness. A pretty good pilsner, though it fails to make what can be a boring style interesting like it’s lager counterpart. Good stuff though!
