COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Using crystal clear water, the finest hops, and Canadian grown malted barley, the Molson Brewmasters slowly ferment each brew. This is followed by a cold ageing process where the temperature is lowered to a point where ice crystals begin to appear. The beer is then carefully filtered creating a smooth, drinkable brew with an appealing aroma.

341ml bottle pours a pale golden color with a small white head that leaves no lacing. Aroma is light grains and faint hops. Taste is light malty sweetness with a mild hoppy bitterness that lingers. Typical macro lager.

Bottle At the local golf tournament. Good god, really? How is this different from regular canadian?! Its the same pale listless, tasteless, fizzy water. Corny, watery, and bland. Its good whe you are parched after shooting 18, othrr then that..... Meh.

An ice cold blast of watery beer, that’s as cold as the Canadian Rockies. If only they put blue mountains on these suckers!

My wife and I drove up to BC from Portland to visit her god parents, this was my first time meeting them. Her Hungarian god father offers me a beer, I decline as I’m tired from the 6 hour drive and it is late. He insists and I finally agree figuring he wants one, saying "I’ll have one if you do". Well he returns with a Molson ice for me and a Diet Pepsi for himself. All said and done the Diet Pepsi was probably closer to beer than the Molson Ice!

Perhaps a bit more hop character than it’s USAian counterparts..maybe my imagination. Taste is of bland macro lager with a bit of rough grainey taste thrown in. Am I really wasting time rating this?

Excellent beer. Aroma is what a beer should be. Flavor is complex and has little alcohol taste with its 5.5% / vol level. Perfect when served Ice cold.

Pretty skunky aroma, with a dry taste with some nice maltiness, and some definite corn flake flavors. This does look fantastic though with a huge fuffy white head and lots of carbonation. So far as Canadian Lagers go, this is so-so.
