2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
I used to drink this stuff as an import from Quebec in the 70s when it had body and was 8% AVB.. Recently bought a couple of singles from the beer store....quite a letdown from the way I remember it. Poured like the typical Molson fizz...pale golden, carbonated, weak heading. More malt sweetness to the nose than most Molson slop, medium mouth feel with sweet malt acceted by a nice hop twang...fast finish but a nice bready after taste...alcohol is detectable. Not bad...not good....certainly not the way it was.

Certainly nothing special about this beer. Has some sweetness and bitterness with an alcohol bite. Good for a molson, but that doesn’t really say much i guess.

Going from memory, I used to drink this stuff at the strip clubs as a teenager. Man it was good back then, and I still have friends from down state that request Brador when I come & visit. Malty brew with decent flavor. Smooth going down, especially with some fine looking ladies in front of you.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
One of my favourites when I was a teen. Pours a thin white head. Malt aroma and a sweetish malt taste. Not something I’d buy on a regular basis.
1.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
Sweet malty and a touch fruity in the nose. Dark golden with generous white head that recedes to ring. Very sweet and rather boozy for a measly 6%. Highly carbonated - too much gas. Bottle.
2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle/Can - Dark amber in color with a dissipating whitish head. Malty/fruity aroma and flavor; slightly sweet. An OK malt liquor. Brings back fond memories of trips to Montreal during my college years.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Deep gold with a huge head the quickly left and decent lacing on the way down the glass. Palate was medium bodied - would've seemed fuller if not for the ever present prickly carbonation. Taste was sweet - biscuity bread with caramel - like a breakfast roll frosted with a thin layer of alcohol. A zing of pepper spice at the finish. At 6%, the abv is at the low end of the Malt Liquor scale. Thanks to my friend Bill for sharing his Duty Free Shop brew!
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Didn't realize this was a malt liquor until I bought it. Not available outside a 24, so I had to take the opportunity to try it. Clear golden with a quick disipating white soapy head. Barnyard aroma. Flavours are dominated by spiced apples. Cinnamon, sweet malts, some nutty and citric notes. Caramel and banana traces. Prickly mouth feel but only soft alcohol warmth. Not bad for a malt liquor.
