Another of the five Newfoundland regional beers that the big breweries make. The label and name definitely evoke something your grandfather would drink (my grandfathers drink rum and Sam Adams Lager respectively, but used to drink Ten Penny - another great regional beer - and Charrington Toby).

Copper in colour, Jockey Club has large artificial bubbles and no real head to speak of. The aroma is appley, with fusel and DMS notes, a rather inauspicious start. On the palate, it is only just slightly more bitter than a typical macro. Vague hints of caramel, wood, tobacco and bready malt make it more beer-like than most macros. Fusels ruin the aftertaste. Watery body. Not particularly well-made, but that's part of its charm. It is certainly among the more interesting and characterful macros in Canada.

Pale golden colour, with a thin fast fading white head. Malt aroma, slightly fruity. Very thin body however with zero hoppiness or bitterness.

Pale golden colour with a lot more flavour than expected but not necessarily a good thing. Some corny sugary aromas at times. Bit of malty biscuityness as well.

Corn aroma, clear yellow, watered down corn syrup flavour. Thin, poor. Thanks jercraigs.
