Commercial Description:
Since 2001, contract-brewed for Pabst Brewing (San Antonio), as Pabst no longer owns a brewery of its own. Brewed in Wisconsin for export to Canada. The "Genuine Gold" brand is not available in the U.S. but it closely resembles the Schlitz Genuine Draft can sold in select U.S. markets. Closely resembles Canadian lagers, a little sweeter and higher octane than typical U.S. lagers, but not by much. Low hops, some malty sweetness but adjuncts are noticeably present.

I tried this beer on May 12, 2008 after purchasing fropm on of my local LCBO outlets. The beer poured a beautiful translucent gold colour with a huge frothy white head that dissipated within seconds. The aroma was of faint grainy malts and not much else. The mouthfeel was thin and watery and forgettable. The flavour had a hint of beer in it.....just a hint. Even at $1.30 a can I expect more than this.

Can: Poured a deep gold color lager with a small bubbly white head with limited retention. Aroma of adjunct is pretty heavy and kind of gross with a sweet aftertaste. Taste is really dominated by adjunct with some sweetness and no hops at all. Another boring and quite bland macros.

oh my. i like to think of this as a mix of corn sweetener and nothingness. in a bad way. if it looks like shit and tastes like shit, it must be schlitz.

clear yellow, small white head. sweet grain and corn aroma with a hint of hair. flavour is very sweet with a little hint of floral hops, but not enough to balance the spoiled corn.
