October 24, 1999<br> Don Cherry’s Restaurant (Milton, Ontario, Canada)<br> 341ml bottle <br> 4.6% ABV <br> $2.60<br> To me, this is the definition of beer coloured and beer flavoured water. The aroma is very weak. The colour I've only seen before in toilets. And the taste is watery. Like Budweiser, it amazes me how many people order this beer instead of the multitude of great tasting treats in Canadian bars.
