I tried this beer on March 12, 2008 after purchasing from one of the local LCBO outlets. The poured a translucent gold colour with a generous head that quickly disippates. The aroma was very malty with some slight hoppish hints. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was very grainy, with very little bitterness.

Jun 11, 2007 Pours a golden yellow, with a thin white film. Strangest aroma I think i’ve ever smelt, but enjoyable, very very grainey. Good solid malt base, with a touch of honey in the middle and a perfect hoppy finish a very well balanced beer. Carbonation is almost perfect, and the finish is very good. A top notch pilsner, probably one of my favourites of this style.

Aug 8, 2007 A special 20th anniversary release I hope they decide to keep making.
Clear filtered slighly coppery pour. Very thick bubbly head that lasts well. Nice sweet and bitter scent. Mix of hops and sweet malts. Very appealing. Mild carbonation. Very little lacing. Very hoppy taste, quit a bit of bitterness but too watery to be great. A slightly skunky aftertaste. A very good Pils, that I really enjoyed. I’m not usually a big fan of Pilsner’s so this is probably not the best one, but I like it alot. (heading back out to the LCBO to pick up some more before they are gone).

Jun 29, 2007 Can. Typical medium-gold pilsner appearance. Pleasant, forward hop aroma, plus grain and wet gravel. Clean, refreshing palate. Flavour follows through on the hop aroma tease with good bitterness. Malt and pine needle round out the finish. A good pilsner, though an odd addition to the Creemore stable considering their lager was allegedly modelled on Pilsner Urquell.

Jun 20, 2007 Can. Really nice. Clear gold and not a very large head. Grassy/hoppy aroma and some mild sweetness and a crisp hint of hops. Goes down smooth, but definitely makes an impression.
I’ll be stocking up for summer.

Jul 21, 2009 This is very similar to Grolsch I find. Which is my "usual" beer. Skunky smell, with a slight bitter and hop taste. Solid Pilsner.
