Steelback (I) Premium Canadian Draught

I think that has to rank as the most blatant use of the word 'premium' in the history of brewing industry. Steelback Premium Canadian Garbage is more like it. Another in a line of vary pale yello brews that have little or no aroma and the taste is very 'off'.

Enough beer in these cans to tranqulize one person, and that must be what Steelback is going for. Not alot of taste or anything really special to this brew. A bit of carbination, a bit of white head and a burning aftertaste. Very bad and very bland

Came in one of their big 710ml cans. Pours a pale golden-amber colour with a decent white head. Hardly any carbonation and lacing. Wow ! There's a big fruity scent to this one. An aroma that I have found in other Steelback brews, but here it is exploding. A scent of peaches and pears with their usual caramel. The mouthfeel is very flat and boring. A bit of nut and butterscotch in the taste, but really, really mild. Not much here... and dissapointing for one of their new brews.

I'm a big fan of the so-called "draught" beers, which are basically unfiltered pale lagers. Some of these pale lagers, while made from the least choice ingredients, can be of an interesting taste, such as Formosa, it can also be a way to hide bad beer. This beer would be the latter. Oh sure, it's unfiltered, yet it's basically nothing more than the the archetypical Steelack taste, yet dumd down cause of the "unfiltering". I would dare to say even the PC Drraught is better than this.

Hmmm...What is the one word I can use to describe the flavor profile and the overall charater of this beverage...."rancid" that seems apropos...has all the characteristics of it's Steelback siblings which also seem to have never seen a milling, mash or lautering process: 1) Rancid vegetal nose 2) sickly yellow color 3) Zero head ( like no froth, no lace zero) 4) Watery body 5) tastes of dirty yeast and rancid corn 6) No real finish just a rough alcohol burn Now this so called "draught" is supposedly a new Steelback "flavor" (as they call them) but it is still hard to take this brewer seriously with tediously inept efforts like this... the thing that really struck me about this one was the obvious aroma and taste of rotting vegetable matter....truely bizzare how this new independent brewer refuses to improve his process and ingedients. Typical characterless, mashless high gravity adjunct brews....except BAD...this is what gets me...they're so consistantly stinking bad!!!
