    Wow, what a crappy beer. Why is this stuff shipped out of it's own province? This garbage does not need to be shared with anyone. Brown beer with red hues, ok carbonation, no retension, spotty lacing. When the first thing you smell is chemicals you know you've stumbled upon a hidden gem..... Ok toasty malts, slight smoke? cheap - very cheap. The taste is wonderful if you love crappy beer. Dirt, acrid, horrible taste, toasted flavour without the malts, some burnt something or another. I'm not sure what else to say about this stuff as it's a mess. Bad mouthfeel - some bitterness, a bit burnt, thin, the initail bite is sharp and then vanishes. Total shit.

    This, in short, was just a crap beer. Nice appearance and an okay mouth feel but nothing more. Aroma was almost a non-aroma; might've been a suggestion of malt. Colour looked like a cola, with no head whatsoever. Taste was far and away too sweet and syrupy. Glad I don't live in Manitoba.

    This beer is one that truly dissapointed me, this brewery is really nothing special however, go with Half Pints brewery if looking for a great Winnipeg Brewery. $20 for a 12-pack of average swill if you ask me.

    A very malty tasting beer. Nothing special at all though. You pay $20 for 12 of them but there are much better beers for the same price.

    A marginal Canadian dark ale from the Praries. Not alot of flavour and medium carbination. A decent dark apperance with a little bit of head. Marginal at best

    I totally agree with buddy up there. It kinda disapoints. You spend 20 bucks on it and what do you really get? you get a sweeter malt liquire. definitly an aquired taste.

    Bottle: Poured a light brown beer with very low carbonation and therefore almost no head. Aroma is quite weak with almost no discernable malt. Taste is light and somewhat refreshing with some note of sweetness and malt. Overall, this is a beer that lack character and complexity and therefore is very average.

    A reasonable head that disappears rapidly, eventually leaving no trace at all as the very mild carbonation doesn't give much of a chance for any foam to remain. A bit of a molasses and fruit at the start. Mouthfeel is moderate. It finishes quite mildly, with no aftertaste. There is a bit of hoppy bitterness throughout. An interesting artisanal ale from a small Canadian brewery, but a bit too bland for my palate.
