This reminded me a lot of samuel adams. I was shocked to find another baked bean brew. It’s also pretty grassy and malty. Another failure from the pale lager group

This stuff is just wrong. Baked bean aroma and flavor. Does not seem fresh in the slightest.

Can (thanks Ace): Light yellow color. Dishwater nose. Watery mouthfeel. Light flavors of beets and overcooked vegetables. I’ll be on the lookout for a fresher sample, but things don’t look too good as of now.

Pours average gold with a slight green hue. Grassy/clover with a lightly hopped nose. Flavours are very green and leafy with only a trace of toasted malt. Toches of citrus hanging around for the finish. Pretty dull.

Bottle - Actually one of my favorite pale lagers. Very drinkable, refreshing, particularly on a hot day. Everything else that you read about colour and how it pours is pretty much true. Aroma is almost non-existent.

Can. I’d like to point out that I brought five beers to the RBSG2004: Westy-8 (top 10), Great Divide Hercules (top 50), Anchor OSA 1998 vintage, Anchor OSA 2000 vintage, and a can of THIS. I saw it for 99 cents at a bottle store and decided to bring it just for fun. God knows how old it was, and it turns out that I needed Alberta for my collection anyway, so bonus. Anyway, back to my story. There was so much beer at the RBSG that not all of it was drank, and only two of mine got consumed. THIS WAS ONE OF THEM!! The description on the can said "Genuine glacier water lager". At least I could get a rating out of it without ruining my palate, since it was just water. No head. No aroma. No flavor...just nothing!

Yellow, that’s all. No head. No lace. Soapy aromas with light malts. More soap in the flavor, mild malts. Mild and unentertaining.
