Commercial Description:
Premier Brands - the Canadian license holder for Headstrong Pale Ale - have taken the unique move of using the brand for a new beer that is not brewed at the original home of Headstrong, Montana’s Big Hole Brewing. Headstrong Munich Lager is their new offering, and like the Pale Ale, it is contract brewed at FX Matt for the Ontario market.

500ml can from NBliquor. Pours a clear golden color with small white head. Lots of carbonation. Nose is that of sweet malt and bread. Taste is bread with a small pleasant bitterness aftertaste. Texture is a bit syrupy witch I didn’t really enjoy. But Overall a nice little ale

500 ml can from LCBO. Pours amber in colour with giant white head. Aroma’s of bread, caramel matl, and earthy bitterness. Taste is not so balanced, hops overwhelm here. Pretty good.

Somewhat dissapointed by this beer. Pour is nice golden amberish body with a sizable head. Aroma is skunky ans cornish. Nothing good there. Taste is poor. Overall, will not drink again.

Clear golden with a medium fizzy head. Below average retention and lacing. Aroma is grainy with funky herbal hops, honey and metal. Flavor is grainy at first with some sweetness coming afterward. Also some herbal hops and a touch of honey and some cardboard. Medium body.

UH...IT’S CRAP? Yup. Dumped into my glass. Ended up with a nice clear light amber brew with a good sized light light tan cap, decent retention and good silty lacing. Man, the smell of this is pretty brutal especially on the initial pour. Warm, unclean, stinky and unappealing with mild malt! The taste was an odd mild fruit with a decent grainy malt backbone early on but that fades quickly, seems alcoholic with some weak watery mouthfeel and weak bitterness. This beer is ass at best.

473 ml can from LCBO. Pours a clear gold with a small, very quickly disappearing white head. Very (too) sweet malty nose. Taste is not quite as sweet with some breadiness coming through. Pleasant slightly bitter finish, though somewhat syrupy texture. The aroma had me worried but I didn’t mind this.

What a surprise. It has some character. There is a subtle nuttiness that I really dig.

the aroma is a soft bready, slight yeast smell. it is golden with a foamy head and the taste is bread and butter with a bit of grass, and has a nice palate with a tiny, pleasant bite. this was a good deal, i used to get it frequently and probably will again
