Originally rated April 2006. This cheaply priced Quebec lager pours a blonde colour with a decent white creamy head. The intense carbonation keeps a good retention, and lacing is also creamy around the glass. At first, there is a nice clean malt scent, but later, a rusty / alcohol aroma comes out. Mouthfeel is watery and slightly oily. When dranked from the can, this beer tastes like water, but when dranked from a glass, the corn really stands out. Grain appears in the aftertaste. The whole glass is covered with lace, as it goes down... quite nice. AKA Bowes Original Lager, this beer is easy to swill down (caution headaches), but is better than what most will say.

Cannette. De couleur jaune pâle et transparente. Nez de grains de malt pâle, léger de maïs avec des notes de riz et de faibles notes de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé) et chimiques. Mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture aqueuse et aux notes rappelant le beurre. Léger goût de grains de malt pâle lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi d’un goût de maïs légèrement sucré avec des traces acétyles (beurre) puis une finale aux notes sèches comprenant de faibles notes amères de houblon herbeux et un petit goût métallo-chimique. Post-goût court aux notes sèches, aux faibles notes amères de houblon et aux traces chimiques.

Straw colour. Grainy, straw aroma. Watery and weak. Too boring to hate.
