Golden, clear refreshing, slightly more hopped than other pils. Low cost point makes this a good value beer.

Nice head. Pleasant bitter "Pils" taste, but unfortunatelly a light metallic taste.

reebtogi (3267) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - NOV 15, 2011
650ml bottle pours a pale golden color with a small white head and only spots of lace. Aroma is cereal and grassy hops. Taste is light sweet and light bitter. Light body and carbonation, this is just borderline above a macro beer.

Bottle 341ml
Aroma: frontal wet cloth , grainy with vegetable hints. Mineral hop feel. Poor.4-
Appearance: bit light shade of gold, nice clarity. Medium white top. Fragmental lace.
Body , Flavour , Palate and Final Notes: Medium light body. Thin malt work even for pilsner. Soapy , mineral hop feel with watery sides. Top was ok but base pretty weak. Decent bitterness at finish. Very average.

Lagerboy (672) - British Columbia, CANADA - APR 20, 2011
A pale, not so hoppy, slightly pilsner-ish (I guess...) drinkable lager. One step up from mass produced industrial swill. Not too exciting.

piscator34 (1799) - Winnipeg, Manitoba, CANADA - APR 16, 2011
Bottled sample. Pale yellow in colour with strong carbonation. Faint aromas of pilsner malt, and even fainter earthy hops. Very dry on the palate with a whisper of malt, green hops, and black pepper-like bitterness. Light bodied and bland, but still far more clean and bitter than your typical North American macro lager.

fiulijn (12179) - Malmö, DENMARK - AUG 1, 2010
Draught at Amberjack Tap House, Surrey, BC
Blond color. The aroma is not captivating, bland, pond water. On the flavor it’s a bit above the mainstream Lagers, with some crispness; quite dry; strong bitterness. Poor.
