garthicus (559), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Apr 3, 2008 Can-LCBO- Ruby red, huge off white head, not a bad looking beer at all. Musty-mown grass aroma, some artificial type scent coming through too. I think you needed to see my face for a true description of the taste--- have you ever gone to youtube and searched for kids eating lemons? Just foul, sour and sweet, carbonated, metallic finish, fookin hell, this is awful, only slightly better than lakeport ale,,,, shudder hazer772 (18), Hamilton, Ontario, Canada Jan 28, 2008 My gf hates beer but after 1 can of this her mind was changed, very drinkable, will not get you really drunk-see my profile for my motives, but for mixed company..the ladies seem to like it. To me is very similar to Rickards. only tried in a can Radek Kliber (3339), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Dec 24, 2007 Can 355 ml
Appearance :Pours as clear darkened amber with hint of ruby red, medium large fizzy top (off tan). Fragmental lace. Nose :Sweet mineral , caramel like aroma , light hint of generic bitters. Flavor/Palate : Thin bodied , soft malty base with hint of caramel , soft grainy finish with industrial feel to it. Fizzy with out substance, very light. Shallow would describe this beer properly. Close your eyes and it will be hard to guess this brew is of dark tint. Artificial coloring? It is not horrible but middle of whole sale discount pack.
JohnBarleycorn (374), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Oct 5, 2007 Can. Reddish-copper hue the best thing going for this bargain brew. Mild cherry and malt aroma. Over-fizzed and otherwise lifeless palate. Unpleasant astringent flavour dominates weak malt character. You get what you pay for with this one. micker (31), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Jun 3, 2007 WOW, is this ever bad. I don’t know why Lakeport would even bother with this. There are much better budget beer red alternatives such as Laker Red. Tastes like Lakeport pilsner with sugar and red dye added. I’m sure that’s all they did to make this putrid brew.
