[1] Review by beercronic from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada who has tried this beer once. (5/31/2007 2:26:51 AM)
"Gold brew that has waaaaay to much junk floating around in it, poured a nice thick white crown, little retension, some spotty lacing. Aroma is acceptable, just too sweet - barley, fake sour apple, weak hops. Boring! Taste is not bad until it gets to the back of your tongue. Starts with a crummy bitterness, lame malts. Gets worse the slower you drink it. Now it's quite sour. Mouthfeel is so-so when quite cold but then the flavours show up and ruin the whole thing - not that anyone could expect a thing from this stuff. Thin, too sour, and by the end there is a horrid after taste that will not go away. Cold, I'd give it a 2.3ish, warmer, I'd give it less than 1.8. I drank most of it on the warmer side. I should spit on this can on principle. I'll say that when cold it's above average low quality swill."

[2] Review by BigBry from Calgary, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/27/2006 10:50:53 AM)
"Not sure what the point of this beer is, label proclaims "Brewed in the USA under the official supervision of Jack Russell". Stars and stripes, the can looks impressive and boasts catch words like 'Since 1858', Imported, Premium Quality, No preservatives, extra smooth.
Sorry - none of the above. Pours a pale watery yellow color, no head to speak of. There is a slightly sour smell, not appealing at all. Thin, watery flavor of rice or other additives. Sour, puckering finish. Basically flat, does not give any mouthfeel. Must be consumed ice cold and very quickly. I guess the remaining 5 cans will wait in the fridge for guests."
