Just a higher alcohol Molson Canadian. Simply indended (and only good for) placing into your coat to taking where you please...

Originally rated January 2005. Sampled from a cute 250ml silver can and warns to drink very, very chilled. Alrighty then ! Poured a typical golden lager colour with hardly any carbonation. The white head was quite good though, bubbly and stayed a minute or two. Not bad, some lacing. Malts are pretty much the only nose. Pretty sweet malts, judging from the mouth. Very smooth for a 6% ABV. Marketed for those who like to get hammered before a rock show... easily portable and concealable in a denim coat.

Best beer Molson has...not too light and not xxx heavy but less liquid, more buzz with no nasty taste

Just like Molson Canadian except with a higher alcohol. So feel free to read my Molson Canadian Review for an accurate description of this beer.

250ml can. Maltier than Molson Canadian Lager, it’s maybe better than regular Canadian, but still pretty bad. Shotgunnable.

Presentation: It was poured from a slim 8.5oz can into a pint glass. A freshness date is printed on the bottom of the can. The can also has the abv listed at 6%. Appearance: The body has a pure golden color with great clarity and some visible carbonation. From the pour it makes a tall white head of foam. This quickly settles down to a wisp thin film which make some slick spotty lacing. Smell: As I had expected it has a light aroma with a pale biscuity malt and very faint grassy hops. Taste/Palate: The base is a pale malt with a plain biscuity and saltine cracker like character. It has a dry overall taste with very light hop flavor and bitterness. The palate has a smooth almost creamy texture with soft carbonation. Notes: For the style its average. It’s not really exciting but it is clean and the 8.5oz can is easy to put down quickly.

I would rather drink these over regular Molson Canadian.... mostly because it encourages binge drinking. If you are sitting there sipping this beer and giving it a low rating go grab a screwdriver fuckin give ’er with the rest of the 4 pack.

So I was hanging out on my pig farm east of Surrey BC polishing my shotgun and yelling at passing immigrants when I found a can of this under my truck’s driver seat.... and naturally I had to pour it in a glass and down it right then and there, slightly warm, and slightly damp you know, from all the rain ’round here. It pours with a boring gold body and a modest little bit of head on top. The aroma is alcohol and corn propelled up by aggressive carbonation. Flavour is adjunct smoothness and a bit of citrus followed by a cloying bready finish. Tastes very fake; I’d just go for a shot of vodka over this stuff.

250ml can
6.0% ABV
I tried this beer on January 27, 2011 after purchasing from the singles bin at one of my local LCBO outlets. The beer poured a translucent medium gold with a short lived white bubble head. The aroma was sweet grainy malt. The mouthfeel was weak-bodied with less than ample carbonation. The flavour was gross...sweet grainy malt and nothing else.

250ml can. Poured clear gold with an initially large white head that deminishes. The aroma is crisp, grainy. Generic grainy malt flavour. Crisp mouthfeel. A bit of a metallic-alcohol finish.
