Nothing memorable here. Crystal light gold lager. Light body and not too much taste and aromas.

Fresh bottle from brewery: Poured a crystal light gold lager in the mug with a small white cap that goes fairly quickly...but does lace the glass. Almost no aroma to speak of...faint sweetness and cerial husks. Light body, sandy mouth feel, smooth mild character Light malts up front a bit fizzy from carbonation but there are some hops balancing the light malts...quick finsh, drying light biscuit taste at finish...no after taste. Standard Canadian golden all malt lager clean, no off tastes, inoffensive.

Interesting to have. It is almost insipit, no bubbles and good foam and almost aromaless. Dark goldne in appearance.

Average pale-gold appearance with medium-sized bubbles and an ephemeral head. Stale, insipid malt and hop aromas with a slight dose of kitty litter. For all the negative adjectives one could use to describe the aroma, there’s very little to say about the flavour: it’s just boring. No thanks.

Now we’re into the dregs. Thin, pee-yellow, very macro-flavoured with a noticeable pineapple/fake tropical fruit flavour to it. Very dull and substandard.

Pale yellow, cheesy aroma. Astringent apple juice. Fizzy cabonation. Some lace. Sampled at LCBO Summerhill Festival. Corn, macro beer imitation, although with less preservatives. Light bodied.Unfinishable

Went to a bbq today and had a few bottles of this. Not great, but it was definitley better than the alternatives of coors light, schlitz and Canadian.
