You’ll find Gopher to have a bit more character than the average lager found on the prairies. We made it with Alberta two-row barley, choice imported saaz hops and special lager yeast. Just like all our other beers, it contains no preservatives, additives, or adjuncts. The result is a clean, crisp flavour with a nice hoppy flavour and aroma but with no bitter aftertaste.

    Purchased a 6-pack of this at the LCBO. Pours a light golden colour (slightly hazy) with a small head that disappeared quickly and left nothing, expect a tiny ring where the brew and glass meet. Grainy aromas and that's about it (but still pleasant). Same for the taste, cereal grainy malts with hints of hop (that I am not sure work together) and hints of honey in the aftertaste. Nothing really exciting here, but a decent lager that shows some micro characters.

    Beer stolen out of my parents fridge at the cabin. First impression of this beer is Big Rock is going after the Marco drinkers because this looks tastes and smells like most Canadian Macro’s but most similar to “Kokanee” but with some added quality. Perfect gold body with no cap just some pathetic looking bubble islands. Aroma seem slightly off with hints of egg and heavy on the metal. Taste is way better very grainy, almost no bread, metallic hops, nice sweet malty finish. Has a good thick flavor. Not bad really, I’ll say the only real problem I have with this beer (except the fact it’s a lager )is the slight apple I can taste. Given limited options I would drink this again.
