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.

This used to be a slightly better than average beer at an average price. First available in the early 90s when dry beer was all the rage. They have revised it in recent years with a slightly different recipe and a lower price.

Originally advertised as a beer with no aftertaste. They lied. Molson Dry pours a light golden colour with little or no head. The aroma is pleasant to the nostrils, not overly powerful. The flavour and texture are very smooth. This is a beer that goes down easily......too easily. An old standby.

Botle. Typical medium-gold appearance. Grass/grain aroma, backed by cheap malt. Heavily carbonated, soda pop palate. Overbearingly sweet flavour profile brings out the stickiness in the cheap malt, seconded by stale grain. Wish there was some bitterness to balance things out. Wish I’d ordered someting else...

What a crap beer. I was probably biased to begin with when I saw that it advertised itself as having "no aftertaste." Tastes like a typical macro lager, albeit with a bit more flavor and body than the standard american kinds.

C’était ma bière de choix dans les bars quand j’étais à l’université mais plus maintenant. Tous ce que je peux dire de bien c’est qu’elle me rappelle des souvenirs...

UPDATED: JAN 12, 2007 Smooth, "dry", and pretty much the best deal in all canadian strip clubs. I could have sworn there was like 7% abv in this brew but I guess I was wrong. That said, this beer tastes great, like somone took quality ingredients and then poured some alcohol. Leaves your mouth feeling very thirsty. If you are going to a canadian strip club this beer is a must. Nothing says Club super sexe in Montreal better than a Molson dry.

750ml can, fresh and faintly citrus aroma, pours with a light golden hue and decent frothy head, quite watery standard lager taste and a watery finish. A poor brewing effort.

Slacks (615) - Bolton, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 13, 2006
341ml Bottle: Pours yellow, no head, carbonated. Aroma is a bit of corn, something nasty. Flavour is devoid of sweetness, a little less corn than I’m used to from Molson, and quite heavy in alcohol. I find it odd that folks like Unibroue can hide 9% better than Molson can hide 5.5%. Regardless, it’s less offensive than Canadian or Export, so when confronted with the Molson sampler, I’ll usually snag one of these. Granted, that’s not saying much.
