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.

Had this in cans direct from Canada. Seemed like Molsons version of a cheap watery beer. The only intersting aspect was the no aftertaste and the higher than "norm" alcohol content. You could get really drunk on these. Too bad they are not avaliable in the states.

Gold body, white head. Mild grain, skunked aroma. Tastes just like American micro-crap lagers with a little extra alcohol. Not very good.

MrManning (1942) - London, Ontario, CANADA - MAY 6, 2004
Strong alcohol taste along with a strong alcol aroma. Sweetness in the taste and aroma as well, but generally I found the alcohol overwhelming. Hops are present but not that noticable. I found it hard to drink, because it did not go down easy.

jgb9348 (3367) - Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA - APR 24, 2004
Pale straw golden coloured body with a thin soapy white head. Not good looking at all. Mild metal/skunky aroma with not much else. Light malt flavour with some mild fruit, but really nothing else than cardboard. Aftertaste is nothing as well-just leaving a bad taste in the mouth and a toonie and loonie behind. Overall, not a great beer-just as expected-but since they don't sell it in the states, I had to indulge myself for a few seconds. I sampled this from a 12 ounce bottle at some small bar in Toronto, Ontario when visiting the city on 09-April-2004.

Mediocre beer for a mediocre night. Prett bland really. I drank from the bottle but got almost nothing in the way of aroma, some slight ephemeral notes of fruity maltiness but not much here. Inoffensive.

This is a very poor beer. It gives no pleasure and has no aftertaste. The color is very light and the body is close to none. An insipid product, I would rather drink water.

UPDATED: FEB 16, 2004 That macro could easily be considered as the favourite beer of people who doesn't like beer. As for the other Molson products, there's a way too much gaz and still that timid corn aftertaste. Better spend your money on carbonated water unless you're a teenager who wants to get drunk by using the easy way...

Clear gold, white head. Light grassy aroma. Flavor has some mild malt, very little hops, clean finish. Light body. Boring.
