Light pale color, aroma that is somewhat skunky. Flavor is of your basic lager types, grass, a bit of malts. Finishes easy, but unspectacular. Easy to drink on a hot day, but don’t let your friends see you drinking it. Drank alot of this while growing up in hawaii.

Pours a decent looking clear pale color with nice white head that dissipated quickly and left a little bit of lacing on the glass. Aroma was skunky. Flavor was less skunky and a light grassy flavor. Carbonation was heavy while mouthfeel was light. Nothing I would ever seek out again.

For the record, it’s better to drink it in New Brunswick, Canada. Still, a potent Canadian lager and a nice alternative to the Molson-Labatt brews that are widely available in the USA. Sure it’s skunky but so are many Canadian bieres.

A very typical big brand lager. Clear yellow, virtually no dead. Light bodied. Very mild grassy hop flavour. Seems to have a reputation for being an expensive/quality beer here in Ireland for some reason.

A buddy of mine and I used to stand in front of all the beers at the grocery store and argue about which one to try next. We didn’t know a gd thing about beers, and we thought that by going north of the border for this Canadian lager we were thinking outside the box. To tell you the truth i always enjoyed the skunky aroma because I thought it was what a "man’s beer" was supposed to taste like. Not a beer I’ll go looking for but if I come across it and it’s on clearance I wouldn’t hesitate to pick up a 6er.

In my opinion, it’s quite different than your typical lager, besides the obvious, the light greenish color. Has a smooth taste, but lacks any presence of hop flavor. Another beer you can drink all night without getting full.

Reminds me immensely of Yuengling. Aroma is barely existent with a slight, slight hop characteristic. Taste is smooth and inoffensive. Not a bad bet, I wouldn’t be upset about drinking this if it was the best thing available.
