341 ml bottle brouht back from BC.
Amber pour, aroma of cheap cereals, sweet malts, and wet cardboard. The honey just adds body and a touch of sweet maltiness. Light grassy finish with more sweet malts. Meh.

355mL can, pours a clear dull yellow with a small white head. Aroma is skunky as hell, with loads of cabbage, and lots of floral notes. Flavour is absolutely putrid, with boiled skunk cabbage and detergent. Absolutely disgusting.

Can - In can - Corn and honey. Likely pale and fizzy. Light grains and tons of sweetness. Another lager.

I didn’t mind this brew and opted for it more often than not when confronted by the half-litre Shaftebury section at the liquor store. It’s a good drinking brew, nothing special, easily forgettable, but satisfied a decent alcohol-per-volume ratio.

Nice sweet flavour profile, though back in the day I found this to be too sweet. Had a dry finish, okay aroma. Really fell down on my list once I started comparing it to English honey ales, but it’s all right when you’re stuck with no other choice.
