Poured from the tap. Clear gold with white head. Mild sweet corn malt with no redeeming characteristics.

Not really in style. But it has an outside character to it, smoky or ashy, but clean and drinkable. Solid light lager. Sk lb variety pack

330ml bottle. As Whistler Mountain Lager. Pours a slightly hazy gold-amber with a medium, foamy, short lived, off-white head that laces. Weak aroma of bready malt and floral hops. Sweet flavour of bready caramel malt, honey, red apple, slightly sour plum and floral hops in a dry, crisp finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Malt forward and actually not bad as far as Lagers go.

Part of their Rambler Pack bought at The Beer Store in Embrun. Goes under the name Mountain Lager and the word Powder seems to be out now. Pours a clean light golden colour with a nice creamy white head, good retention and thick lacing. Nice cereal grain malt aromas with a slight sweet touch. The taste has the same, but with a hint of sourness that is not bad at all - in the finish. Quite an easy-drinking lager that still has some nice malts to it.

Gold color. I guess they are going for a sweet, creamy, underhopped lager. There’s some malt to support that idea, but also a fair bit of diacetyl. So much that it’s undrinkable.

At a tasting, thanks Ariel, smallish bubbly head, clear goden colour, oxidised and candy aroma with some skunky notes, oxidised flavour with cornflakes and a hint of dried fruits. Just plain bad.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel Florentin. Thanks Ariel. Clear golden. Aroma of skunk, corn and cardboard. Sweetish oxidized flavor with cardboard, corn and a slightly drier finish. Light-bodied. Pretty unpleasant.

340 ml bottle. Pours a clear light gold with big head that dissipates quickly. Aromas if hay, corn syrup, and cardboard. Sweet. Light malty and corn flavor with a thick syrupy feel. OK pounder.

Draught at Tap & Barrel, Vancouver
Blond color, small head. The aroma seems sweetish, and sweetish is the flavor too, also because the bitterness is an utopia; it has a light corn and paper feeling.
Really bland.

A blonde lager with a thin white head. In aroma, light malt with German hopping. In mouth, a thin sweetish malt with mineral notes, German hops, light metallic notes when beer warmed up.
