blankboy (3157), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 21, 2007 Bottle (12oz) shared with HogTownHarry & GregClow -- courtesy of GregClow. Pours a pale gold with a spare diminishing white head. Aroma of urine-covered diapers, slightly rotten apples and alcohol. Flavour’s watery, corny, grainy and filled with various nasty elements. Light bodied. Simply awful -- if you must drink this then drink it ice-cold and chug it so you can’t taste it. GregClow (2493), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 18, 2007 Bottle shared with blankboy & HogTownHarry. Another ratings whore find in the LCBO singles bin. Bright golden colour with a small white head. Aroma of fusel alcohol and plastic, with vague malt notes. Sticky body. Flavour is thankfully quite bland, with a faint sweetness and not much else. HogTownHarry (3922), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada Aug 16, 2007 Bottle (341ml). Shared with blankboy and GregClow - tupalev MADE us drink it, at gunpoint beyotches y’all. Pale gold, not much head, looks pretty limp in the bottle. Strong, nasty aroma, cheap rice and corn - blah! Pretty awful taste, too - harsh corn, sharp alcohol, stale bitter "hop" oil coating my tongue. Watery, boozy, harsh - just don’t unless you’re a ratings slut like me. JohnBarleycorn (390), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 4, 2007 Standard gold appearance and aromas of cardboard, stale malt and green apple, plus ominous sharp alcohol. Drinkable palate and low flavour profile. Could use more hops to offset the stale, bitter alcohol finish but is borderline bearable as is. Nekronos (2243), Xalapa, Mexico May 11, 2007 NOT that bad, but still being a lttle cheap flavour, too strong and nothing special on it. ONly for those who get drunk. vitamine (35), USA Sep 9, 2006 holy crap does this beer ever suck. if you want a strong beer that kicks you in the butt. go right ahead. i rather get drunk off of a beer tasteing beer markas101 (541), Fargo, North Dakota, USA Aug 30, 2006 Beer like this has to be judged with the competition in mind. For the price ($24 for 24) I do not think it can be beat (although I will keep searching). Admittedly uninspiring aroma, the strong alcohol content contributes to a fuller flavour. If spending twice as much there are many better beers of course, but value for money counts for something. Slacks (480), Bolton, Ontario, Canada Aug 4, 2006 341ml Bottle: Brick has always been my favourite Canadian brewery but if they continue to be responsible for stuff like this I might have to rethink that. I should have looked here first and noticed this "beer" was a malt liquor. Smells like rectum, looks fine with the exception of the frothy phlegm-like head that runs along rapidly. Tastes like a combination of rubbing alcohol and metal. I can still taste it 30 minutes later, and that’s not a positive thing. Premium lager my white a$$.
