Pale yellow, fizzy medium sized white head. grainy, dusty aroma. Sweet flavour. A bit dry and sticky. Not great but not terribly offensive.

Thin and perfumey. Very smooth and no taste. Hey, but that’s why you bought it! Molson Dry is better as far as the style goes.

Bottle shared with GregClow, tupalev and jerc -- courtesy of tupalev. Wow, we had the Labatt Lite first and I didn’t think it could get worse. I was wrong. Pours a light yellow with virtually no head, no surprise there. Smells moderately malty mixed with bad white wine and perfume. Tastes awful but the aftertaste is even worse: a lovely blend of malt and excrement. Dry beer has to be the worst. Vile, vile stuff.

Grainy aroma. "Extra" pale. "Extra" short lived head. "Extra" bland. "Extra" watery. Bottle.

Bottle shared with blankboy, tupalev & jerc - courtesy of tupalev. Pale gold colour. More of the cider & white wine aroma that I got from the Labatt Lite that preceded it, along with some really unpleasant vegetal undertones. Has more flavour than the Lite, but that’s not a good thing, as it’s some nasty-ass flavour, with an especially awful aftertaste. Bleh!

Bottle. Looks like headless diluted urine. Very slight sweetness with mild alcohol and chemical overtones in the aroma. The concensus around the table was that there was also a distinct white wine quality in the aroma. This discovery makes me very curious as to what exactly/chemically generates this smell as it is present in most white wines I recall having. Flavour is alcoholic and diluted. Oddly bitter but not hoppy. Watery. Bland. <P> "If they don’t try. I don’t try. - Tupalev

Found this at mi in-laws a few weeks ago, so I figured what the hell, a no cost Ontario rating. Better yet, I can make others suffer with me! Fantastic. Anyway, this was darker than the Labatt Lite tried right before. Again, no head at all after unnatural fizzy evaporation. Greg pointed out the white wine taste and I can totally identify it - weird, medicinal. I found this quite offensive (where the Lite was not). And damn you label there is an aftertaste and it is not pleasant. Next.

HA, the review before me dissed Molson and this is a Labatt product. Get your research right buddy. That review before mine is probably the best thing associated with this beer. Just plain AWFUL!

not good, not good at all. Tangy cytris domonat flavour, overly artifical carbonation, skunky, skanky hop, and an AWFUL sickly tangy hopy aftertase. Dry beer is bad. This beer is not dry, but IT"S BAD! dont bother. Cheers {ps it was on sale, $14.99 for a 24, and even though that price shouldhave made me run, I was broke and bored and well, all I can say is the hangover is deadly and my neibour has 24 emptys in his bushes now}
