I’d rather be dead than to drink Genny Red or something like that. This stuff is just trash. Not much of anything good going on here. There are worse beers out there, but of the top of my head I am having a hard time thinking of more than about 5.

Multiple tastings. Catching up on some of the beers I drank in the past - this is one of those crappy cheap beers that have alot of corn in them. I try to avoid beers like this today.

Clear pale yellow with a frothy one-finger white head that quickly settled to a wispy layer on the beer’s surface. The aroma is cereal-like with an innuendo of yeast and corn husk. The taste is like mild watery liquid corn flakes with a very light aftertaste of corn husk. There is some barely perceptible bitterness in the note that follows. Ghastly as well as ghostly. I’m bored to tears now. A name like that sounds like the Genesis of lame liquid sliced white bread beers.

473 ml can - pours pale. Smells pale. Tastes pale. Chemicals, corn, random badness. Headache in a can. No thanks...

this is the most alcohol taste per actual percent ive ever had... its only 4.5 on the can and tastes like some malt liquor. smells like metal, booze. its light gold, taste is harsh, grainy, alcoholic. its pretty harsh on the tongue. but this is what gives a crap beer character over some flavourless midrange lager though it loses points for being weak in %.

Pours straw color with a fizzy white head. Smells of sweet malt, some earthy hints, grassy. Tastes peppery and sweet with an appley finish.

473ml can from the LCBO (which by the way, is NOT a full pint, no matter WHAT you print on your labels). Pours a decent gold with a medium white head. Aroma is just terrible, chemicals, corn, awefulness. Flavour matches up well in that it also doesn’t fail to disappoint. I thought maybe the 6-row barley would make this half decent but alas, it sucks. Weird, watery yet dry at the same time, little flavour, corn husks feature prominently. Seems pretty overly carbonated for something that’s supposed to be kraeusened. So basically everything about this beer is an absolute dirty lie. Why the hell would you proudly advertise that you use corn grits? Once again, big thanks to the LCBO for providing us with the absolute shittiest beer you could find. Really, thanks a lot.

Pours a medium golden yellow color. Aromas of metal, corn, and some minor hop action. Flavor is kind of metallic, with cheerios and hops.
