From old tasting notes. Deep yellow gold color. Big bubbly white head. Interesting herbal malt nose. Pleasantly sweet toasted malt flavor with a complex spicy hop finish.

Originally rated November 2004. After trying Upper Canada’s light lager, I decided to try their strong lager, called "Rebellion". Poured a golden colour with highlights of orange. The head was nice, and slowly dissapeared, leaving a foamy lacing. The nose was grainy, malty and sweet. Tasted mildly the caramel with hints of fruits. Had a slight bitter aftertaste that was pleasant. I like to have this beer from time to time. Great session beer... except for the higher alcohol.

The last time I had this beer it was terrible, so I thought I'd give it another chance.. This one poured amazingly clear with a light copper body and a bright white head. Aromas consisted of caramel malts and citrus with floral notes. Initial sip was somewhat flat. Moderatly bitter start to a flat finish with perfumey flavours on the palate to finish. This one wasn't much better than the last time I had it...I give up!

I think this is an underrated beer. In the style of a European strong lager, it is similar to some of the Polish examples, save for the Lublin hops of course.
