Ha! good old redcap!
I remember having this when it was brewed by Carling. Just a plain old crappy golden ale. Nothing fancy, just a lawnmower beer.

Originally rated June 2006. Ah yeah... the stubby bottle ! Pours a golden-yellow colour with a medium white head that dissipates quite quickly, leaving minimal lace. Heavy carbonation of average-size bubbles. The nose is dominant of sweet malt and slowly going toward a grainy malt. Smooth with slight fizz mouthfeel. Starts off with some mild sweet malt, then goes through this hoppy light bitterness to then end with a grainy finish. Hints of apples and pears. Definitely more punch then a lager, and quite a decent smooth ale I enjoy every time at the Dominion Bar in Ottawa.

A light golden ale with a thin dissipating white head. A rather corny wet dog aroma. In mouth, a rather sickly sweet corn taste, rather oily, very short hop bitterness. Chalky notes develop as beer warms up.

Not much different than it was in the 60"s except this has a metallic presence to it
