This lager poured a light yellow colour with next to no head, even after a vigourous pour.l To the nose there are scents of corn, hopps and a little ripe fruit. First taste was smooth but a little watery. Not much of an aftertaste. Flavours of corn, sweet malt and spice??? Finish is nothing. a faint beer flavour plus corn. Flavour just seems to disappear. Not too bad but lifeless.

Aug 2, 2008 I can see why this beer is $4 less per 6 pack than any other beer.
Proof that a "craft" brewer can make swill.
A chemical bitterness and a bit of maltiness. Pass.

Jun 4, 2008 341 ml bottle in a six-pack from LCBO, served cool in a tulip glass.
App.: Clear golden with a frail white foam.
Aroma: Grains, cereals, light grassy hops, a touch of old apple juice,
Palate: Medium+ body, fairly soft carbonation, smooth and surprisingly substantial. Reminiscent of a Pilsner in a way.
Flav.: Much like the nose, mainly grain/cereal, with a bit of grassy hops and some light non-descript fruitiness; lightly off-dry with a wee hint of bitterness (quite wee) and a very light caramel apple finish.
Didn’t realize I was buying a discount beer until I paid. Not bad, all things considered.

Nov 19, 2007 Bottle (341ml). Via trade with matt7215. Clear light gold, huge diminishing frothy white head - nice lacing. The aroma is not bad - a hint of pvc up front, but plenty of real cereal grain malt and - gasp! - actual light weedy hops. The taste is pretty run-of-the-mill - follows the aroma, but does seem a tad harsh - clean, but harsh. Slightly weak body, a bit chewy, mild carbonation, and a slightly bitter aftertaste - the finish is fairly quick. Decent deck beer if you’re sitting in a .... muskoka chair.

Nov 4, 2007 6 pack from my local LCBO. Slightly malty nose, not much hops. Slight evegetal flavour and aroma. All in all for a buck a beer, it’s one of the better ones i’ve had. For a basic barebones boring lager, its decent.
