Can: Poured a golden color lager with a huge foamy head with good retention but minimal lacing. Aroma consists of medium sweet malt with no distinguishable adjunct. Taste is also dominated by some medium sweet malt note. No hops presence was discernable or any floral notes but I should also say that no major flaw is detectable. Not bad overall but still too bland for my taste buds.

A golden lager with a thick white head. Aroma of corn adjunct and light sulfuric notes. In mouth, sweetish corny malt with very little else going on for it. Another euro-lager from the LCBO.

Bottled "Premium Lager" (BB 01/2008)
Propably this as bottle says 5%. Very pale yellow color, small white head. Plastic-rubbery aroma. Harsh papery flavor with odd rubber boot side flavors. Bad bulk lager but new beer country!

Bottled. Pale yellowish colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is rubber gloves, grass and sweaty socks. Flavour is rubber, metal, malts hops and big grassyness in finish and aftertaste.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pale golden, fine creamy head that laces my glass. Weak, malty nose. Incredibly light body and very, very watery. A weak touch of hops in the finish. A sad beer indeed. 300605
