Terrible beer, crappy flavor, smells like wet cardboard and is just plain foul.

Pours a boring golden, mostly flat, with a big, white head. Aroma is corn & adjuncts, light alcohol and baby-powderish perfume... rather sickening. God-awful diacetyl popcorn butter/corn syrup/ethanol flavor. A slick mouthfeel with an alcohol-astringent finish makes me wonder if I just consumed gasohol.

yah baby swill in it’s purest form.Nice golden color,small white head that faded quickly leaving nothing behind.The aroma is sort of sweet with corn and mildly grainy.The flavor now thats another thing,corn corn corn,some sickening sweetness and alcohol.this brew is almost hard to get down with it’s nasty taste,in fact i don’t think i’ll subject myself to a full can of this punishment and give it it’s just reward for being what it is.Drain Pour all the way.

Tall can. Pours a medium golden color. Sweet acidic aroma typical of malt liqours. Sweet and grainy right up front. Some sour flavors as well. Slight gasoline characteristics bring up the rear. Not really bad for what it is.

Well it will get you drunk, and your mouth will taste like piss. 4 light beers in one 24 ounce can. The hurricane will follow.

Another big purdy can. We sure are blessed this evening! Trivial pursuit and King Cans. Life is good in Canada! Sweet sugary aroma with plenty of boiled cabbage and other assorted vegetables lurking beneath. Clear golden body with low but lasting, fine bubbled, white head that recedes to a lasting cover and leaves some lace down the sides of the glass. Alcohol is strong in the flavour and almost overpowers the dirty dish water, and boiled corn and cabbage flavour. Sickly sweet aftertaste that lingers. Light bodied and fairly hot with lively carbonation that prickles the tongue. Can sampled with ClarkVV, muzzlehatch and Sprocket.

24 oz can that Muzzlehatch shared with tiggmtl and myself on 11/6/05. Deep amber-gold with the usual orange gleam of a malt liquor and the even more usual fierce carbonation, large (initially) white, bubbly head that was slow to diminish. No lacing. Aroma of light dms, lots of corn syrup, almost a light tart/sourish thing, stale corn with mint? Lots of cheap sugar. Initial flavor does not have that thick, overbearing dms and corn wretchedness, just lots of candyish, cloying sugar. I almost start to remark how surprised I am, but then, as the liquid sits in the mouth and growing on the finish, builds a wretched, spoiled veggies, sourish and putrid. Soon alcohol has joined the foray and is backed by more cloying sugar. High levels of sharp carbonation, cotton candy and more alcohol and veggies on the aftertaste. Very challenging to drink more than two or three sips.
