Light gold color. Small head. Aroma is slightly malty. A very light bodied wheat beer. Some malts, some hops. Not much flavor. Beat macro swill, but why bother. Mouthfeel is thin. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is neutral. NOt ba, but really nothing to recommend it.

can. translucent golden with a short-lasting large fluffy white head. aroma is of sweet grain, butterscotch, and caramel. no fruit to speak of. flavour profile is somewhat thin, it’s mostly sweet with some bread and yeast notes. short acidic finish. normally this isn’t a style I’m very fond of and this beer is no exception.

very disappointing (from a can). nice thick head that dissipated in about 10 seconds. hints of wheat, but mostly standard lager. nice hop aftertaste. Overall, an ok beer, but the taste swings too close to the macro side to give it any strong ratings.

Well, it came served with a lemon, so right away I was reluctant to claim it as my order. Came from keg, clear golden colour, no head. I didn’t want to use the lemon, but my buddy put it in before I could protest (or maybe I did protest and he didn’t listen). Anyway, it tasted like lemon-flavoured Perrier.

Rather "blah" in appearance, golden and bright with a fuzzy, wet, white head. Faint aroma of pale malt as a precursor to sweet malts and honey in the flavor. Mineral water finish. Refreshing enough, but this has very little substance. At least I can tick-off "Alberta".

An interesting beer, nothing really going on here. I had it on tap, it was served with lemon. Would be a great summer afternoon beer. Very refreshing.

Assée rafréchissante avec un légé goût, pas super impressionante. J’avoue qu’il y a pire.
