COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Molson uses the exclusive dry brewing process to create a beer with lower sweetness, and then carefully balances the beer by expert use of high quality German and Pacific Northwestern aroma hops, added liberally and very late in the kettle boil. The result is a different beer with very little bitterness and aftertaste, higher alcohol and a pleasant balance of hop, esters and floral aromas.

Can’t believe that I cracked this the day after swillfest, but there it is. Pale golden, white head, slicky lace. Pale malt aroma, bland flavour with a bit of sweetness and absolutely no bitterness. Boring. Man, do these guys actually beleive their beer descriptions... aroma hops??? How stupid do they think we are.

*****ACHTUNG***** This is not a beer for drinking, this is a beer for laying down and avoiding! If purchased in a bottle, it would serve only in hand to hand combat. =====Ministry of Beer=====

Tihs is the best of the major label beers. It’s not available in America, which is very unfortunate. Luckily I’m only a few hours away from Montreal, and I have driven over the border just to pick some of this stuff up! Easily the smoothest beer I’ve ever had, I drink it by the bottle or by the pitcher. Don’t let the beer snobs get you confused, I drink my fair share of cask beer on weekends, but for an everyday beer, nothing can beat Dry. Try it next time you’re in Montreal, you won’t be disappointed!!!

This is my default beer for when I’m hanging out with the boys on a weekend, with a view towards getting pleasantly inebriated. It may be macro swill to most, but I like it, and find it to be hoppier than most Canadian standard lagers.

Draught at Nickel’s in Montreal. Straw yellow, almost no aroma, a little too much carbonation but still went down smoothly. Typical macro taste, maybe a little hoppier than a macro flagship brew.

Draft at the Montreal Airport. A step up from the previous Rickardts. Innocuous, forgettable brew.

Dry? Yeah, it’s dry. Much like chasing seltzer water with a mouthfull of sand. I just can’t believe the commercial description. It’s almost comical, sad, but almost downright funny.

I really don’t understand why I went through the horror of drinking this beer.
