Molson Dry Cold Shots

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 4

A 6.5% ABV. version of the Molson Dry, put in a 8-pack of small cans. Pours a light golden colour with a big frothy white head that stays a decent time and gives out a bit of foamy lacing. The nose is not overly sweet as I thought it would be, kind of malty. Notes of alcohol and bananas. Taste of sweet malt with the famous Molson corn in the finish. A little adjuncts, but overall, not too bad. Nothing too chemical. Made for the 18-20 year olds.

I don't think they make this anymore, and that's a good thing. It's not as similar to Molson Dry as they would like you to believe. The fact that it is best drank near frozen should be a warning sign.

Cute 250ml Kiddy cans ( hide ‘em in yer jeans from teacher)…noxious sweet kiddy taste (Hides the alcohol well that you intend to get gooned on)_….seems like another winning marketing device for Molson who have staked out the “kiddy” market for their own. Nothing special or note worthy about this beverage (I say beverage because it has as little in common with real beer as a soft drink) with the exception of warnings on the can to serve extremely chilled…..I can see my gag reflex kicking in if I had to drink this Popsicle-sweet beer at room temp. Bland pale yellow appeance..no head or aromas to speak of and a sweet corn taste devoid of hops with an indescribably annoying sweet after taste drying provided by rice in the mash. The typical mega brewer let down in the taste department is not the real story here. I think the mindset behind the kiddy kan (250ml) the 6.5% ABV and the 4-pack is a priceless statement on the devolution of mass Canadian beer marketing politics. They obviously see the kiddies (teens and arrested development twenty-somethings) as the main market for their mass produced slop but they must salve their federal nannies who pay lip service to the tragedy of teen addictions and auto deaths (Yet the feds profit handsomely from the arrangement via booze tax and monopoly alcohol sales) So they show “good corporate citizenship” by packaging their little kiddy alcohol bombers in small 2 gulp cans and 4-packs (and sell more units for teens hungry to get gooned on this wobbly pop)……classic modern Canadian compromise of a once proud brewing tradition. And hey...they concel wel in a back pck or fleece pocket...take em to school for breaks or anywhere you want to get shit faced fast. If you guzzle 8 of these buzz bombs before the Averil concert try not to yak on your crew or fall off something high or wet the bed when you pass out….let’s be careful eh?…drink a lot but don’t blame us eh?

Poured a golden color with a small white head that quickly diminished leaving no lacing. Aroma of corn, malts, and a touch of fruitiness. Corn syrup, touch of caramel malt, very bland, though cardboard is non-existant. No hops in this beer however.
