Named after Albertan brewing pioneer, Charles Flint, this lager is our first offering with organic malts. A crisp and easy drinking European style lager, Charlie Flint's is a fitting tribute to our Province’s first brewers. Brewed with Sterling hops and organic 2-row malts, Charles Flint's organic lager is as smooth as it gets. The combination of these two ingredients gives you the world’s finest hops and malts all in one mouthful. Our lager is aged to perfection, staying in our lagering tanks for a minimum of four weeks before being filtered and packaged. The result is a lager that provides a perfect dry finish with moderate maltiness and a lingering bitterness from the hops.

Had a draught pint at our hotel bar on the latest trip to Edmonton. The only local offering available. It is a yellow gold color, with a solid white rocky head. Left some thin lace on my glass. Continued carbonation provided thin streams of bubbles. The smell has some grassy hops and bit of bready malt. The taste is well balanced between the malt and slighty hoppy finish. A solid beer, not offensive, an obvious choice over Canadian or Coors Light.

Beer pours a hazy beige gold with zilch for head only a small bubble ring appears around the edge of me glass. What the hell there are big bubbles trying to break free of the surface but can’t, it’s like the beers surface is this impenetrable plastic that won’t allow carbonation to escape with out a fight WEIRD!!! Strange combo of chemical and banana in the sent and why am I smelling banana here? Very sweet smelling, fakley sweet in fact, this brew smells ungood. Ya that’s right I said ungood. Yuck nasty taste egg yolk, bread and chemicals all come through and its making my face curl and wince with ever sip. Slight banana in the finish, why is that flavor here? Beer feels soft and thin and flat nasty beer. Why is beer allowed to exists WHY? Good job Ally Kat

Crappy beer. Dumps out a light bright amber brew and was producing no head at all until I poured the remainder of the bottle in from about a foot above the glass. One pathetic string of bubbles arose. Aroma was of weak sweet malts, some wheat and some stink when warmer. Overall mild and boring. Taste seemed a bit sharp with less than average hops. Slight malts. Needs more of everything. Light bodied with an ok swish and some smoothness. Not great or enjoyable but not horrible.

Bottle: Poured a golden yellow color lager with a small bubbly head with minimal retention. Aroma of malt is quite weak and no hops are discernable. Taste of weak malt with a watery finish. I know they mentioned the use of European hops in this beer but honestly I could not detect them. Carbonation is a bit low for the style and the body is too watery. Seems to me like this is an attempt at producing a macro-like beer.
