Brewed under license by Moosehead Brewery in Canada
The beer poured a translucent medium gold colour with a very thin white head that lasted for a few minutes. The aroma was grainy malt and weak hops. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was more grainy malt with a hint of hops.

    Bubbly white head. Heavy carbonation visible in glass. Yellow body. Slightly corny aroma. Sweet flavor. Nothing special. Compares to Bud in my book.

    484ml can. Drank with Jamaican food in Great Moor, Stockport. Hoppy/malty nose. Light carbonation but quite zingy on the tongue. A few hops upfront, then it’s the sweet, sweet train all the way home.

    11.2 oz bottle. Clear yellow/gold with a medium sized white head that dissipates quickly to a small ring, some spotty lacing. Aroma of lager malts, honey and bready. Taste of malts, grainy, citrus and corn. Not bad, maybe a good lawnmower beer.

    Poured thin translucent gold with small ring of white foam. The aroma is weak and smelling somewhat beer-like. Mmm, for a lager like this it doesn’t taste all that bad. Lots of carbonation brings out the hop bite and very light pale maltiness. I also get a mineral note too. A true hot weather lawnmower brew.

    I expected more. Could not detectany aroma to speak of. It is not different than most of the pale yellow american cheap beers I’ve tasted and I’ve tasted most all. Clean with little taste or aftertaste. A little fizzy. Decent finish and acceptable.

    Bottle. Pours clear yellow with a small white head. Aroma of grain. Doesn’t smell or taste very much. Sweet and watery and somewhat refreshing. Slightly bitter and spicy finish.

    Pours wan straw yellow with an eggshell head that doesn’t stick around. Aroma offers typical crisp lager malt. Flavor is hardly there but tolerable. Mouthfeel presents wimpy body and fizz. Well, had to try it.

    This is just a good average yellow beer. A ice cold one at the beach hits the nail on the head. Not a beer to savor by letting it warm up. Can't say much exciting about it but good enough to drink again.
