Bennett Dominion Ale

Small white head over corn-golden beer, clear. Very neutral nose, like still water, muddy. Grain taste, neutral to light sweet. "Crisp" is the word, for better or for worse. Light bitterish aftertaste, very light body. Dull ale. Maybe ’t wasn’t such a bright idea trying it, whilst watching a TV series where they were trying Saison Dupont, Saison de Pipaix and other gems... Thanks, Stef C!

Straight up the best lager out of the marintime provinces. Standard solid gold beer with tons of little bubbles, very smooth, creamy white crown and very impressive lacing. Good retention too. No lack of aroma here - quite sweet with over ripe nectarines or peaches, some pee - don’t matter though ’cause this is a solid brew. My description for taste doesn’t entirely reflect how much I enjoyed this beer - notable background bitterness throughout, cardboard malt and a solid wheat taste. More tongue drying bitterness has made this waaaaay more bitter than I thought it would be. Some sourness and alcohol as well - contributes to the nice stomach heat I got. I like! Mouthfeel is pretty plain and a bit harsh but I enjoyed the dry, dry bitter finish that left me parched. Excellent unassuming brew that really surprised me. Is it 3.7? As far as Canadian lagers go, it has to be. Don’t confuse this for being better than a better than average Belgian ale or something like that - for me it just excels in its class.

Dark golden yellow, no head was really produced during the pour, just some small patches bubbles linger around, wow I’ve never seen a beer that resembled urine so much mmmmmmm…… looks tasty. Malty and sweet, smells just like every other low-grade beer. The taste is all darker tasting malts and corn maybe just maybe I can detect a faint hint of hops buts its hard just like sniffing a fart in the wind. I wont lie this beer isn’t good but you could probably drink a ton of them and not get sick of it."

Yup. Pale golden color, white fizzy head. Grassy, sweet aroma with some cornbread. Flavor is "meh" with a slightly bitter-sweet finish. Definately improves with warmth. My fave macro Nfld session beer.

Pours a pale golden color, darker than the average macro, but still pretty light. Head is medium and white, reasonably quick to leave and left a tiny tiny bit of lacing. You can smell the corn in this brew, and a little bit of fresh cut grass smell. There might be a tiny bit of caramel to it as well, but I doubt it. It’s a rather dry beer, with corn overtones, medium bitterness and a cirtusy aftertaste. Pretty watery, and mid to low carbonation.

Bottle in St. John’s. No matter what the name says, this is NOT an ale. This is a lager. Colour, taste, and probably even in fermentation, this is a lager. But as far as lagers go, this isn’t horrible. Golden-yellow, yeast and grain aroma, grain and corn flavour. It’s not mind-blowing, but it’s drinkable.

This is one of my favorite beers when letting off steam or just hanging out with the pissants. Thankfully this beer is now availavle in Val Verde.

<!-- i -->Bottle - courtesy of jerc.<!-- /i --> Pale golden colour with a small white head. Aroma of wet grain, grass, and a hint of fusel alcohol. Flavour is quite full for a macro, but not especially great - roasted grain and popcorn notes, along with a strange lemony/metallic tang. I’ll give it some credit for being unique for a Molson beer - I just didn’t enjoy it very much.
