500 ml can: I was hoping this would be like a fine French wine simple ingredients and simple flavours. While it wasn’t a fine French wine it was a very drinkable beer. Poured a deep golden colour with white head. The nose was of wheat and malts. Wheaty, corny, malty flavourings on the palate finishes with a touch of bitterness. I think this beer would be better minus the corn. Overall an Ok bevie to quench your thirst but nothing outstanding.

Bottle. Very average pale lager with faint sweetness, average balance, and pleasant but mild flavor. Nothing to rave or rant about here. Prefer Carlsberg, Moretti, or Kingfisher to this in the import pale lager department.

35.5cL, Michelob shaped, green bottle with 1664 molded into the sides. Light orange and clear, with a short lived white foamy head. Aroma of corn nibblets and slight hop florals. Flavor is of a Heineken. Malty with a skunk hop finish. Palate is kinda a long lasting bitterness. Not too bad, not too good.

Deep amber with foamy white head. Aroma is fruity, pears. burst of malts and hops. Good combo. Finishes light sweet malt flavor.

Caramel aroma. Golden color, thin head, good lacing. Good flavor of grain and hops, but lacks character. Ordinary hop finish. Plenty of flavor, nothing at all distinctive.

33cL bottle in Pilsner glass. Clear yellow pour, a little darker than Coors Light. Medium head. More flavorful than any of the big 3 light beers. Somewhat refreshing like a cold glass of water on a hot day.

500ml can sample purchased at the LCBO. Pours a light golden yellow, with a white head and decent lacing. Aroma is light and slightly of hops. Taste is light and of citrus and hops. Pretty decent.

This beer is clear gold with a thick white head. At first the aroma was hidden, but I got bittery hops and the beer smelled a bit off. The taste is bitter and not well balanced. All beers in the pack were the same so I conclude that this is how the beer was intended. It is drinkable, but there are other I would go to first
