Commercial Description:
Premier Brands - the Canadian license holder for Headstrong Pale Ale - have taken the unique move of using the brand for a new beer that is not brewed at the original home of Headstrong, Montana’s Big Hole Brewing. Headstrong Munich Lager is their new offering, and like the Pale Ale, it is contract brewed at FX Matt for the Ontario market.

I find it funny that they market this as a munich lager. Still an enjoyable drink. Hoppy taste that’s not unpleasant for a moderate finish.

Aweseome, this beer should be rated higher. The head is impressing and the taste is better than most NAFTA beers I have tried. NOt really looks like a Munich beer but it’s superb.

canette de 500ml. rien n’indique qu’elle est brassée par fx.matt mais c’est écrit big hole donc ?bière blonde presque cuivrée, nez malté, bouche sucrée, maltée, peu de houblon, ressemble à une münchener helles.

Clear light amber with medium, fast-dissipating head. Smells caramelly, too much so. Sweet aroma. Soft, medium carbonation. Sweet caramelly flavors. Too sweet!

Golden-straw colour. Soft, slightly caramelly palate. Full, rounded, but a little bit watery. A fairly forgettable effort.

Can. Pours golden orange with a sweet aroma with fresh custy bread and butter, lemon, faint grassiness. I taste hop bitterness, mandarin orange, faint lemon, orange rind, metal in the finish, with bitter hops.

500 ml can from the LCBO. This is a good beer. But I probably wont buy it again because there is nothing about it that really got my attention.

Sweet cereal and bread-like grain with floral and lightly spicy hops in the nose. Brilliantly clear deep golden body is topped by a generous and foamy white head that lasts well and laces the sides of the glass. Breadlike malt flavour seems overly sweet and bitterness is late to arrive and not quite enough to take the edge off. Medium light body with overly prickly carbonation that is a bit harsh on the front of the tongue. Lager glass. Just above fridge temperature. Can (Brewery Creek, Jul-08).
