Another one og those beers I'd heard of a long time ago and was excited that I was able to finally try one. Maybe I was expecting too much but I can't say there was anything special aboot this one but better than some of the other Legendary Maritime beers.

UPDATED: DEC 2, 2007 Yup, a Maritimer’s drink. My brew of choice many years ago when nothing better was available. You can actually taste hops and some malt, but cereal taste is strong. A lot better than typical American mega-swill. Best served cold and on tap.

Corn aroma, pale yellow, small white head. Some hops, almost no flavour, watery, below average.

UPDATED: JUL 7, 2004 We called this Vitamin O back when I was in university. Some friends still won't drink anything else.
Re-rate: Clean and crisp, but on the bland side. Pale gold colour, fizzy white head. Drinkable, but definitely a quick beer.

We Canadians must drink too must because I have never seen our ’Exports’ exported? Nice white head and yellow colour. Definitely not the best beer I tasted in Halifax.

UPDATED: FEB 6, 2003 Clear bright good head. Little flavour. Another macro. sigh.

For an export, this is a little weak, but a good beer. It is a very light colored beer given the fact it is an export. Still, you can’t go wrong with an Olands Beer.
