2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 vikingguy (456) - Chaska, Minnesota, USA - OCT 2, 2008
This is a decent Canadian Lager, but not quite as good as the Labatt Blue. The Canadian seems to have a touch of skunk to it. I’ve drank quite a few of them and it’s the same everytime. They go down easy, have a clean, crisp taste, but the finish is sort of skunky. Still better than Bud/Miller.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 EithCubes (3053) - GERMANY - SEP 21, 2008
Bottle. Corny, grainy nose. Clear dull golden pour with a creamy white head. Body very sweet, lightly dusty dryness toward the end but the light corn doesn’t fade. Very faint crispness on a thicker-than watery body. Better than many other pale lagers, though the aftertaste leads me to believe a sixpack would net me a bitchin hangover next morning. Yes, aftertaste is nasty.

(24 oz. can from Bootleggers) Pours clear pale yellow with a few fingers of white head. Aroma is sour more than sweet with some dishraggy hops. Mouthfeel is slightly prickly but not bad actually relatively smooth, not overly dry and with certainly a bit more beef than most macro lagers I can think of. Flavor of sweet corn, rice and slight bread maltiness with some paper. Actually fairly drinkable.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 Strangebrewer (496) - Chatham, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 12, 2008
Light sweet hop aroma. Thin head, clear pale yellow colour. Medium mouthfeel, a bit dry. Better than some but far from the best.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 McGarnigle (443) - Rochester, New York, USA - SEP 8, 2008
Straight from a cold 24 ounce can. Light ’beer’ aroma, not bad at first. Not much taste, but crisp and refreshing. This ends when it goes above 40 degrees as unpleasant flavos develop. Drinking from the can probably keeps it cooler longer, but 24 ounces is a bad choice, as it takes longer to finish.

Smooth beer, skunk on the nose, more distinct flavor than American lagers but still very watery. crisp and refreshing.
1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20 That1Guy (1491) - Lyons, Colorado, USA - SEP 6, 2008
Nothing offensive here. Smooth, almost as if I’m drinking water. Hardly any flavor, aroma, definitely no finish, and, once again, it’s the color of pee. I’m with the dude who rated it before me: a beer for pounding purposes only.
