473 ml can. Pours a bright amber with light head that settles quickly. Aromas of old apples, other fruit, corn syrup and wet toasted malts. Sweet flavors follow same. Really just a malt liquor at 8%. OK for getting a buzz on I guess.

473ml can. Pours a crystal clear yellow gold with a small, foamy, short lived, white head that leaves spotty lacing. Mild aroma of bready pale malt, red apple and floral hops. Sweet flavour of grainy pale malt, corn, red apple, alcohol and slightly floral in a mild bitter finish. Medium body with a syrupy texture and average carbonation. Malt forward and too sweet for me.

Some cereal and plenty of booze. Some lagered malt aroma. Golden pour with ok head. Just enough of that malt liquor type aroma to keep me from finishing this can.

Pours with very good foam on a soft golden body. Tin and corn on the nose, but luckily no cheap alcohol stench which is important for a beer like this - quite possibly you'll be pouring it all over yourself after can number 5 and that stench could reduce your affability amongst the local populace. That said, the flavour is not necessarily awful - in fact it's kind of acceptable for a beer like this. Deep grain, soft molasses, heavy brown sugar, alcohol is well hidden. Mouthfeel is full. Chilled it's not bad to drink at all in fact and a sweet bargain at like 8 bucks for a six pack. So really, extra points for a reasonably passable super cheap strong lager. 6 pack of cans found at a BC liquor store in Merritt.

Golden clear, with medium head. Light aroma of bread, cereals. Lean body, the mouthfeel is lightly sweet; it doesn't show the alcohol, and it has some pleasant fruity esters. It doesn't have the flaws commonly found in the style (oily mouhfeel, fusels), it's balanced, quite pleasant.
