fredthecat (180), Canada Jul 7, 2009 smells sweetish, amber with a head that disappears, flavour is light malty, corn syrupy sweetness, harsh and just mechanical.. not going to get again even though its cheap matt7215 (942), Cambridge, Ontario, Canada Apr 25, 2009 473 ml can from the LCBO. pours golden with a nice white head. looks pretty good but also overcarbonated. sweet adjuct filled nose with fusel alcohol. the flavour is a touch sweet but not overly adjuct filled. really not much in the way of flavour other then some sweetness. its overcarbonated, thin, and i can taste the alcohol. its crap but finishable crap. Papillon (172), Sudbury, Ontario, Canada Apr 17, 2009 473 mL Can. Clear yellow body with a rocky short-lived head. Aroma is corn husk, wet cardboard, and alcohol. OMFG! It tastes like vomit. Time to call Ralph on the big porcelain telephone. probstk (1007), Nepean, Ontario, Canada Oct 30, 2008 500 ml can from LCBO, served cold in a tulip glass.
App.: Clear golden with a fair white head.
Aroma: Sweet grain, corn, light apple juice, a little wet cardboard.
Palate: Medium body and carbonation.
Flav.: Worse than the nose – more grain and corn, still a touch of apple juice, some alcohol, a bit of wet cardboard; basically dry with a touch of bitterness and light lingering apple juice.
Not the worst stuff I’ve ever had, but certainly not great. robinvboyer (1419), Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, Canada Jun 14, 2008 500ml can. Typical clear golden pour with a small white head. Aroma of sweet cron, cheap grains, and wet cardboard. Whoa! the flavour is f’ing awful. Wet cardboard, sweet cheap corny grains, and some nasty cooked rotten vegetables. holy hell this is awful, drain pour allthe way mabel (2530), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Dec 31, 2007 Updated: Aug 14, 2008[786-20071028] 473mL. Corn based creamy oil product and wet Shreddies aroma. Clear, orange brown body with a long-lasting foamy white head. Grains and yeast flavour has a bit of a malt aftertaste. Light-medium body. Not horrible but gets worse with more sips. (4/3/2/2/6) 1.7
[1570B-20080803] 473mL can. Boozy wet grains aroma is skunky. Clear, yellow orange body with quick foamy white bubbles. Wet grains flavour. Light body. Smells worse than it tastes, this time. (2/2/4/2/6) 1.6
Overheard: "The Laker Ice... Extra Not Good." mephisto (1144), Taiwan Aug 7, 2007 another macro premium lager, the aroma is actually likable- earthy malt. not much flavor in malt or hops though, the finish is slightly sweet. radiomgb (1921), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Jan 28, 2007 Pale golden in colour, thin quickly dissipating white head, no lacing. The aroma is grainy, some corn and cooked vegetables, metal and sweaty socks. The flavour is a bit fruity, some sweetness, crisp, corn, vegetables, tin. Watery mouthfeel, light body, medium carbonation. Finishes thin, watery and quick. Not overly horrible but just borderline drinkable.
500ml can from the LCBO in Peterborough, Ontario.
Best before May 4, 2007.
