Molson Old Style Pilsner

Big ole thanks to jdubFL for this tasty pale treat. Pours clear gold with a white head requiring quick attention to see it before it fades away. The aroma is grains, honey, floral hops and overall smells overly sweet. The taste is much the same with a pleasing level of graininess welling up in the middle of a sack full of sweet malts and sweet floral hops. It tries to dry out into the finish but it comes up short.

This is all the rage with a former girlfriend (from Saskatchewan) and seeing it as a single at a local LCBO I had to try and see what the fuss was about. It pours a pale gold colour with a white fluffy head and a lot of effervescence. The aroma is grain/corn, diacetyl, and weak hops. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavour is quite grainy, but that's expected for a macro lager.

Pours a huge foamy, bubbly white head which gives off thick patchy lacing. Has a straw coloured appearance. Mainly grainy and wheaty aromas. Very light roasted malts. Some hints of corn adjunct used in this one. Flavours are pretty much same as aromas. Just lots of corn, grains and wheats. Very mild sweetness. But something about it makes it real easy to drink and has just enough flavour. Sort of a mild, flat, prickly mouthfeel. Light and smooth, not much else. Awesome old school/retro label on cans from the old Lethbridge, Alberta brewed beer.

So I had thought I had drank this before, but I realized when I got the 15 pack home, I indeed had not. I wanted to hate this beer at first. I really did, and even had some very disparaging things to say about it, but as I drank more of them, and the ones in the fridge got colder and colder, it started to grow on me. What can you say about this brew that hasn't already been said? It's like some weird German/ Czech Pils hybrid, but thankfully a little more grassy than it is sweet. Yeah it's macro swill, but it's pretty good macro swill.

Had to wait for the plane at the Calgary airport and found the Molson Brewhouse. Went inside and discovered this beer (which is no where to be found in eastern Canada). Loved the old school label, so had this. Poured a golden colour with a big fluffy slightly warm head that is long lasting and has decent lace. Grainy nose with a little hop. The mouthfeel is not bad, kind of dry and crisp. Medium-bodied. Again, grainy taste with some corn and a bit of hop in the finish. Slightly truer to a North-American pils than Labatt Blue. Not a bad swill.

You can't go to Western Canada without trying this shit, er beer. There are very good reasons why this beer is not available in Eastern Canada, and I hope it stays that way....musky describes it well.

i think i like the ice and canadian a touch better, but this ain't bad for pee either. nothing great, but it goes down nice with pizza or wings, and there is no offending aromas or tastes. just light malt, corny, a touch of hops...refreshing enough.

This beer is huge in Western Canada. Both my father and grandfather said it was garbage then and I say it's garbage now. Colour - pale gold, white head. Aroma - grainy malt. Mouthfeel - medium bodied. Flavour - grainy. Overall - sub-par.

A friend brought this to the Sipless family lager week. A strong offering that is popular in Canada. There was nothing unique about it in my opinion. Golden in color, and grainy in smell and taste. Not worth a trip to the Great White North.

One can't go to Saskatchjewan without trying an Old Style Pilsener....except myself. This is one crapola of a beer. I've had dozens of these starting in the late 50s (before it was a Molson product) and as recent as mid-April. I still don't get the hype of a pale gold, grassy smelling, vomit basting beer. Where American teenagers reach for Bud...Prairie teenagers reach for Old-Style Pilsener!
