Bottle - Clear pale gold. Large white head. Thin, watery with medium to high carbonation. Sweet, sugary, and a little skunky.

coyforce (294) - Mississippi, USA - APR 15, 2010
First impression is skunky. Pours a nice beautiful golden yellow with a thick white head. Medium-heavy carbonation. Taste is a bit sweet with a light sweet-sour aftertaste.

Once in a while I’ll drink this with a friend. Not much to say. A watered down lager, but it does give off some decent hop aromas which always surpises for what this beer is. If there were points for a cool label, it might not have scored as low.

Moosehead Lager (New Brunswick) - 5% 473ml A refreshingly crisp tasting beer with a light complexion and slightly skunky aftertaste. Easily my favourite Canadian beer. It seems insane to me that anyone would give this any less than a 14/20. A friend of mine called this the sourdough bread of beers and I agree.

halfonit (929) - Fall River, Massachusetts, USA - MAR 20, 2010
Pale golden color with a thick white, and quickly evaporated, head. Before I can even get close to this I can already smell the skunk in it. I thought it was my girlfriend smoking at first but then realized that the stuff we get is much better smelling than this. Aroma also consists of malts, hops, and rice. Flavor is full of skunked malts and hops. It also has a little burnt flavor in the end. Leaves a bitter flavor in my mouth once it has been swallowed making my taste buds angry with me for having to endure such an unpleasant beer.

LetsGoState (310) - Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 19, 2010
Pretty average overall. I would much rather have a Molson if I have a Canadian beer. The aroma is not good and the taste has a little skunk, but still decent.

SuperDave (1934) - Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA - MAR 19, 2010
Vibrant gold pour with a foamy head. Aroma of malt, grain, a bit of hops and skunk. Flavor is weak and grainy. It’s beer.

arventresca (394) - Greenville, North Carolina, USA - MAR 12, 2010
Bottle. Pours like a golden macro lager. If ever Pepe Lepue erupted in a beer it is this one. Not much taste and an aweful skunky smell. But hey, it has a awesome name.
