Great Lakes Brewing Golden Horseshoe Lager

Brewed by Great Lakes Brewing (Ontario)
Style: Pale Lager
Etobicoke, Canada

341 ml bottle as part of a 6-pack from Pa (thanks!), served at cellar temperature in a Scotch Irish taster glass.

App.: Clear golden with a so-so white head. Aroma: Some nice fruity, biscuity, toasty malts, a hint of hops? Palate: Medium body, moderate carbonation, kinda smooth. Flav.: Fairly fruity, still some nice biscuit malt; dry with a hint of bitterness and a pleasant light malt finish.

Not particularly interesting.

Frothy white head that dissipates quickly. Golgen hue. The aroma is a small amount of grain and not much else. Highly carbonated sweet late. Not too bad for an American Standard.

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.

Draft at the Flour City Brew Fest. Only thing in my notes on this was ’Not good’.

Not bad, had it on tap in Tillsonburg, Ontario. It is a better alternative to Blue or Canadian, but that isn’t saying much.

Predictably boring. Pours pale gold with a thin white head. Corn and grain aroma. Flavour virtually non-existant. Too much effort imitating the macros.

Box said golden horseshoe blonde... pale gold with a thiin quick white head. Aroma is grainy malt, mown hay hop. Flavour is light and clean, medium malt, some biscuity tones, light bitterness in the finish. I can appreciate it for what it is.

Pale gold clear pour with soapy head. Smells of cooked grains and corn. Taste is sweet and follows smell. Slightly harsh industrial feel. It is much lacking.
