473ml can. Pours a clear mahogany with a red hue and a small, creamy, long lasting, beige head that laces. Sweet aroma of roasted malt, caramel and licorice. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, licorice, dark chocolate, molasses and brown sugar with a mildly bitter coffee finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. A little too sweet for my liking.

Can from B’s Liquor Store, Langley
Blond color. It has a touch of sweetness for a Pale Lager, it’s boring, low bitterness, but not flawed or too bad.

tap as "Stoked n’ Spoked" at The Wolf’s Den in Golden, BC, asked the waitress and apparently it’s actually this beer - Pours light, clear gold with a minimal white head. The aroma is very mild grainy malt. It tastes sweet with grainy malt, corn, and a touch of bitterness. Light bodied. Meh. It’s not terrible.

Amber. No head. Has a strong, basically malty and spicy aroma. Thin for the style. Has a sweet note. Not much character, just sweet, bland, more or less malty character.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy dark orange amber with a small white head. Aroma brings out vegetal notes, some grass, and artificial herbal qualities. Flavour is quite off-putting, with vegetable and herbal notes, with some artificial vanilla notes. What the fuck are they thinking? Nasty.

Tasting at Josh’s, can
Blond color. Blond malt and petrol, quite sweet and a bit oily, light cereal aroma, almost some liquorice in the final.
Not my cup of beer.
