tupalev (2337), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 24, 2008 Can, LCBO. Light to medium lightish yellow, big white head, bubbly, that fades quickly, lots of active streaming bubbles. Grainy semi sheet malt and a bit of skunky like hops. Taste - more of those hops, which detract, but the light malt here is ok - kind of sweet, kind of refreshing. Which is kind of funny when I read the description here that says "Triple cold filtered, very clear beer without malty taste". Ha. Anyway, soft to thin body, watery. Better than their regular offering but I would not get it again.
kidmartinek (777), austin, Texas, USA Aug 30, 2008 Smells like skunky hops and corn sugar water coming out of the bottle. A clear, but lightly yellow tinted pour with an antique white head of 1 inch, which settles promptly and holds to a 1/4" film. The aroma cleans up as the beer settles and becomes more mild, hoppy, and sweet. The flavor is pretty sweet. I just can’t get past the corn syrup. It’s a toss up of flavors, sometimes malty and bitter, and sometimes sugary. The palate is too sweet. There is no finish. mabel (1710), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 14, 2008 [1568-20080803] 500mL can. Hay aroma has a bit of wet grains. Clear, light orange yellow body with a medium-lasting foamy white head. Grainy boozy hay continues in a boring flavour fashion. Light medium body. Poor. jerc (3268), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 4, 2008 2008-08-03. Golden body with a modest white head. Muted aroma, muted grains with very mild yeast accents. Mild flavour with a very light bitterness, mild floral/grassy character, touches of straw. Average to light palate. Not offensive, but fairly bland. <i>Can from LCBO</i> Sammy (3242), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 2, 2008 After a run of good beers, we introduced this in the mix. This can spews out a fizzy foamed pale yellow colour with a slightly cheesy aroma. Its thinnish body of metallic malted water gives momentary repause on thirst, and that, 10% of the can, was..enough. spkevin (26), Doetinchem, Netherlands Aug 2, 2008 500ml can @ home. Pours a clear golden colour with a good head. Head quickly turns in a small foam. Taste is watery but refreshing. Not bad but nothing special. Just a normal lager.
