Oh boy... if you get this, you have to get it fresh, or it’s Canadian skunk all over the place... which is what I got. Disgusting.

Doesn’t look appealing as it light gold and without head. Yet it does not taste too bad as it is quite smooth and without a lingering finish. Also very refreshing when cold.

Pours quite easily with not much head. Aromas of slight skunk, but the taste is quite good as it strays from most macro beers in taste. Definatley a refreshing and different approach.

473ml can poured into a pint glass. Pours a clear yellow color with a white foamy head that took a few minutes to dissipate. Aroma is grassy and a little sweet. Not much flavor. A little sweet. A little hop bitterness but not much. Average carbonation. Crisp finish. Typical macro Lager feel. Is it drinkable? Yes. Would I drink this regularly? No. Would I turn it down if it was offered to me? Probably not. From experience this beer seems to get skunky real quick when in bottles but even from a can it’s not too impressive. It’s just an average brew. There’s better Canadian Lagers out there than this.

Not big on these skanky style beers as they all taste the same to me. Your basic light color but smells and tastes of skunk. Apparently this is desirable to people who like this type of beer but it is not for me. Had worse but I don’t plan on drinking this again.

Very ordinary, which isn’t good or bad. Very similar to Labatt, Molson and Fosters in taste and character.

Not a bad lager at all. I have gotten picky however as I get old and grouchy. This would be preferred to the American macros but that not saying much is it....
