At 5% alc/vol, QV is brewed with light malt and gently hopped. It offers a smooth, crisp taste with a very clean, sparkling finish. Similar in style to our QV Light, this golden lager will be enjoyed by those who prefer light-bodied domestic beers with a slightly higher alcohol content.

"Another high kwalitie swill brought to you buy Newfoundland. Decent light gold brew with touches of amber, a crap load of massive slow moving bubbles and a fizzy white cap with little retention. Smells of odd sweet malts and a dull baked apple taste take one back to a time when you could pick up hotties on your fishing boat. Taste is decent enough with ok malts and some bitter substandard hops. Non-offensive, boring and bland tasting but easy to consume on those nights when you are lost at sea. Light to medium modied with a classic Canadian Lager mouthfeel except it lacks the crappy aftertaste that most Canadian swills have. Some early bitterness and soft carbonation. I assume it goes good with Seal Fin Pie."

"Crystal clear body, with a small white noisy cap that’s disappearing fast, the body isn’t really gold in color more of a honey brown. Creamy smelling hops, with lots of malt, and there was this out of place sweet strawberry aroma in there to, this beer is surprisingly good smelling maybe not good smelling different in a good way is more accurate. Mild bitter hops, clean tasting malts, and just like in the smell there is a strange strawberry presence. I’m surprised about the noticeable hop presence you normally don’t find that in these cheap domestics. Good brew, not a great one and for the price of free that I paid for it well worth the money. "
