Sledge Jr (2692), Omaha, Nebraska, USA Jun 24, 2008 On tap at the brewery. The brewery tour is lots of fun, so I highly recommend it. They let me blow the steam whistle. The beer...not so much. Pours dark gold to slightly amber with a big white head. The flavor is definitely NOT a true pilsner a la czech or german, so I guess that this is best referred to as a lager. Best thing about this beer is that it is super FRESH. Mild malty aroma- no discernible adjuncts. Medium body. Crisp and clean flavor with a long mildly bitter finish. Good, but not great. I’d drink this again at a Jays game. bozoNZ (360), Christchurch, New Zealand Jun 3, 2008 Nice golden yellow, decent white head. Slight floral hop aroma and you can almost smell the carbonation. Nice biscuit malt flavours, on the sweeter side - almost with a light honey ale type finish. Thanks bro for bringing it back. AskForJenny (410), Ontario, New York, USA Jun 2, 2008 I associate 401 with Toronto, so I thought beer #401 should be from there. Serve this to me blindly and I would have thought it was Rolling Rock. The same pale, fizzy stuff with the same light flavor awaits. The freshness does make a difference, as the flavors are pronounced, but there’s not enough variety in them to make a difference. Good when you’re there. sneagrams3 (1342), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Apr 16, 2008 Tasted 4/15/08. 12oz Greenie. Filtered with a pale golden hue. Sparse off-white head. Light toasty and grainy aromas. Light bodied with mild effervescence. Odd sweetness. Tangy with a short lived finish. Nothing much. patricks110 (92), Alberta, Canada Mar 27, 2008 Good Canadian pilsner. Nice light hoppy flavour. Hard to find in Western Canada.
