Introduced in the 1950s, Schooner is a popular Maritime-brewed beer. Unique fruity flavours from the Labatt yeast, and a special blend of North American hops, help deliver a clean, smooth tasting beer. Schooner beer was named after the famous sailing ship, the Bluenose II, which was owned by the Oland family.

Poured from 341mL bottle @ Capri Caberet Cape Breton. Fucking around at an after hours bar. Why? Who knows… post wedding shenanigans. Garbage beer.

From old tasting notes. Bright gold color. Big bubbles lead to a foamy white head. Clean, zesty fresh malt aroma. Tart hop flavor upfront. Faint dry bitter finish. Light dry aftertaste is brief. Lacks balance or any real character.

Update of old Tick from 2013. At University in the 80s, this is what you bought if you were going to a party, since nobody would drink it on you.

Originally rated April 2004. I wonder if it was better when the Oland family brewed it. I enjoy light-tasting beers from time to time, but this one was not enjoyable. Miller High Life is much better !!

Light. For some reason, an early college favourite. Grew out of it, though.
