Commercial Description:
Remarkably smooth for a full-flavoured beer. Our founder's intention was to combine the refreshing taste of a German lager with the distinctive taste of an English Ale without blending the two.

Another "just a bit different to appeal to the masses" beer. Poured out a light gold beer with a small white rocky cap and minimal lacing. The aroma is quite light with corn, some grain and a touch of skunk (very little). Boring ass beer in the flavour department but it gets it done. Uninspiring corn and grainy malts and weak hops (a good thing in this beer). So-so smooth, finished soft with a very slight bitterness. Yawn.

Can, on the train on the way to Montreal to Mondial beer festival. Appearance: golden yellow, lots of visible carbonation with a thick white head. Aroma: grass, corn, band aid, paper. Flavour: Corn, malt, acidic, wet paper. Nothing creamy about it. Inoffensive but bleh

341 mL Bottle. Clear gold body with a small and instantly dissipating head. Very mild but basic malty aroma with notes of grass and grapefruit and a hint of caramel. Flavor is light sweet malt with grass and a hint of crystal malt in the aftertaste followed with light sweet malt in the finish. Meh... very middle-of-the-road.

Not bad. I liked it. Very watery though. Not a whole lot of flavors. But I thought it was drinkable.

Poured from bottle. Nice light golden color, but not much head which disappeared quickly. Some lacing left behind. Smelled a bit malty. I found the taste quite average. Smooth, clean tasting, but nothing really stood out. Good overall.

Bottle: This one was the best of the box for me. It had a very subtle creaminess to it in the finish which made this the best of the four. Not much else to say.
