Big rock, keeping up their mediocrity. This is brewed for the masses. Light corny, vegetal aroma, no hops, very little grains. Needs to be served ice cold, cause you might get a bit of actual taste. God knows we cant have our beer taste like anything, i just want some straight easy drinking nothing to get me smashed! Thank god for the no aftertaste.

473ml can. Pours a clear gold with a medium, foamy, short lived, off-white head that leaves spotty lacing. Mild aroma of toasted pale malt, corn and slight vegetal. Mild, sweet flavour of bready malt, corn, vegetal, honey and grass in a dry finish. Light body with a thin, watery texture and soft carbonation. Not horrible, but not great either. Clean, easy to put back. An ok camping or lawnmower beer.

Drank at Distortion bar in Calgary, October 2016 when we played there. Biscuit malt aromas with hints of soapy hops. Very mild tasting malts. Was the cheapest beer in the bar. Did the job that night. About it.

Can at Matt’s
Blond color. Poor corn Lager smell, no bitterness, very bad.

Can - Grain with a touch of skunk. Clear gold with almost no head. Honey sweetness and bready notes. Not great.

355mL can, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of corn, crackery malt and cereal notes. Flavour is not too offensive, with cereal notes and corn. A cheap pale lager. Trash.

Swillfest ’05
This was one of the more drinkable beers on the night. Straw colour. A little biscuity, grainy aroma. Neutral wonderbread flavour.

Saw this tonight at my local hangout, which means its poured through dirty lines. A short history....Big Rock now owns Whistler. I strongly suspect this is a revamped version of Whistler Lager with slightly less malt and slightly more hops. Will re rate when I find it at a decent bar
