October 1, 1995<br> Don Cherry’s Restaurant (Milton, Ontario, Canada)<br> 341ml bottle <br> 5.5% ABV <br> $2.35<br> This beer was part of a huge national campaign done by Labatt in 1995. They distributed Copper X and Copper Y around the country to various watering holes, and consumers were asked to vote on their favourite. After the winner was declared, the beer lasted all of 5 months on beer store shelves. It was not a big winner. The aroma was metallic in nature and the colour was not all that dark. The taste was rather bland all the way through. A beer that if you blinked, you missed it.
