| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Oct 2, 2007 (Can 35,5 cl) Fairly decent straw golden, no head to speak of. I think I detect a whiff of malt in the aroma - or was it just a dream? Not much body, but perhaps a little more than in my prior experiences with Canadian swill. Grainy, sweetish, cereal-like. Hops? What hops? 040792 Oakes (8101), gone rambling, Cambodia
| 0.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | May 2, 2004 Swillfest ’04: Sour aroma with grass and blackberries. Fizzy body obfuscates whatever flavours might have been there - grains I guess. Lousy, even by swill standards. tiggmtl (4311), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 0.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 1/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | Jun 1, 2004 Very light sweet grainy aroma. Very pale with thin white fully diminishing head. Sweet, grainy flavour. Astringent and thin. Bottle. HogTownHarry (4020), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Jul 2, 2006 Updated: Jul 5, 2006Bottle (341ml). Silver lining in visiting a friend who has "discovered" that if you plop a bunch of ice cubes in a glass of beer it stays colder and lasts longer; I told him if I caught him doing that with a Dreadnaught I would throw him off his 22nd floor balcony (no risk of him having/drinking flavourful beer). Anyway, pale fizzy yellow, some fizzy white head. Smells watery and sugary; tastes watery, sugary and of stale corn, no hop character at all; weak bodied, what hit my palate left in a hurry - not awful, but cheaply made - typical cheap generic Canuck macro, sweet - but nothing horrific (like, say, Steelback).

| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | May 2, 2004 Small head, pale gold lager. Fruity hints, obvious missing hop element might be annoying. It feels incomplete at this point. jerc (3945), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Aug 19, 2007 Can of "Carling Lager" from the LCBO (4.9% abv) blue and yellow can. Pale yellow with a tiny white head. Muted grainy aroma, light grassy hops. Grassy bitterness is actually fairly decent for a macro, albeit fairly bland. Average palate. Not awful while cold. presario (2987), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Mar 30, 2004 Pale but bright yellow with a good starting head (big bubbles that sink so fast before your eyes you'll think it is a camera trick. Pretty much no aroma but gets a bonus since it doesn't offend either. A little thicker body than expected. A touch of bitterness in the finish. An hint of alcohol. Why are there so many songs about rainbows....and so many 5% pseudo beers? DougShoemaker (2856), Toronto, Canada
| 1.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 5/20 | Feb 15, 2006 Smell of plastic and corn, yellow, pours a large, long lasting white head. Tastes of adjuncts and minerals. Light bodied, slightly harsh. Poor.
