[1] Review by cyrenaica from Milton, Ontario, Canada who has tried this beer once. (4/5/2008 12:28:57 AM)
"473ml can
5.0% ABV
I tried this beer on April 5, 2008 after purchasing from one of my local LCBO outlets. The beer poured a translucent gold colour with a fluffy white head that quickly dissipated to small off-white islands. The aroma was very grassy, with little other discernable aromas. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied, and amply carbonated. The flavour was more of the grassy malt flavour. "

[2] Review by lenusik from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (12/19/2007 10:41:30 PM)
"This was a decent beer. A beautiful clear golden colour with a thick white head. The aroma was slightly on the hoppy side. The flavour was a balance of sweetness and the hoppish bitterness. As I said, a decent beer."

[3] Review by God_Of_Beer from Ontario, Canada who has tried this beer once. (4/7/2007 6:11:38 PM)
"Nice deep gold colour, nice head that didn't last long. Watery mouthfeel, taste is good, light and sweet, but a bit too much on the bitter side. Not crazy about the aroma, kind of a turn off. I would probably never buy this again, although i did enjoy it."

[4] Review by mmmmBeer from Edmonton, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (9/17/2006 1:36:01 PM)
"Very standard looking beer, nothing special about it, clear gold body and just a thin vale of head that lasted the entire brew. The smell was a touch skunky with strong musty smelling malts couldn’t really detect any hops in the sent, not an appealing smell but it could be worse. Beer seems to be rather drinkable light to moderate hops, sweet grassy malts with a bready finish. Overall this is a sweet tasting beer very drinkable but nothing special, to good for camping or yard work, not good enough for a sit back and savor beer, but it might fit in for the watching the hockey game at home kind of beer.

[5] Review by clarkyo from Halifax, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (8/17/2006 1:53:32 PM)
"I find this beer great because it goes down smooth while still having a lot of flavor. Sure it might be a dollar or 2 more expensive per case but I feel that it’s worth it. A great choice on a hot summer day while having some bbq."
