  • St. Bernardus Blanche (Witbier)
    rated 4.5 16 years ago

    Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

    This beer is a smidgen below some of the other great beers that Brouwerij St. Bernard produces. A hazy gold beer with a white head (almost remeniscent of Celis' other beer Hoegaarden). A spicy wheat taste predominates this beer.

    I was fortunate enough to have a Belgian friend send me a bottle of this, and after trrying it, he instantly became my best friend (I haven'ttold her yet). This is every bit as good as the non-special edition of this brew. Again, I highly recommend if you can still get a bottle...go for it.

  • St. Bernardus Abt 12
    rated 5.0 16 years ago

    I've had the opportunity to try both this beer and the exalted emporer of them all the Westvleteren 12.............and while it's close...I prefer this as the real King of Beers. A dark brown beer with a yeasty smell and a tan coloured head that lasts longer than the Vietnam war. The mouthfeel is creamy, full, and the perfect hint of CO2. The flavour is heaven. The monks really know how to do it!

    A mildly decent Canadian lager that works when you need it. It's not a beer that I would drink as my 'go to' beer, but when it's the only thing available...it's definitely an upgrade over Budweiser or Labatt Blue.

  • Carling Ice
    rated 1.0 16 years ago

    Aroma: 2 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 2

    This is a bad beer, and friends described it as such. It's a typical pale gold colour with a small head. The aroma is weak, and the taste is watered down. A very bland beer.

  • Carling Draft

    Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 2

    This is a shitty beer. It's awful. This is one of those beers that I heard a lot about on the radio, but didn't live up to the hype. Having the Carling name told me right away it was a Molson budget beer. The lack of aroma, and stenchy taste confirmed the word 'budget'

  • Carling Black Label
    rated 4.0 16 years ago

    Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8

    I first tried this beer when Carling was Carling O'Keefe, and the label was the black badge on a white bottle. This is one of those comfort beers one comes to enjoy. It's a pale gold lager that is truly enjoyable. The aroma is more malt than hops and the flavour backs that up.

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

    This is a fine macro swill brewed by Molson. It's a pale gold colour with a white head and very little aroma. The flavour is rather bland and not very memorable.

  • Bennett Dominion Ale
    rated 2.8 16 years ago

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

    This is Canada's newfie beer, and probably a good place to start for my first rating. This is your typical pale gold lager that has a slightky hoppy arima, and a slight hoppy taste. Not a great beer, but certainly not a bad beer.
