1851 | Lake Of Bays NHL Alumni Signature Series: Top Shelf Classic Lager | Canada | Pale Lager | 3.0
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6 473ml can <br> 4.5% ABV <br> Milton LCBO Outlet #1 (Milton, Ontario, Canada) <br> November 18, 2013 <br> The beer pours a translucent gold colour with a fluffy white cap that quickly disappears, and mild effervescence. The aroma is biscuity malt, some citrusy hops, and light fruit tone. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, with average carbonation. Flavour is slightly sweet and spicy, with grains dominating the flavour. Not bad, but I think the sweet spicy notes I am tasting would get tiresome after a while. |

1857 | Boxer Lager | United States | Pale Lager | 1.3
Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 2 473ml can <br> 5.0% ABV <br> Main/Bronte LCBO Outlet (Milton, Ontario, Canada) <br> July 29, 2010 <br> $1.75<br> This is a strange beer. Heavily advertised on Canadian TV with the tag line "We sell it in Ontario for the minimum legal price....but we would sell it for less if we could". Well, it's certainly worth a lot less than the minimum legal price in Ontario. The beer poured a clear gold with a HUGE white bubbly head that did not last, although there was excess effervescence in the glass.. The aroma was metallic, acidic, and sweet. The mouthfeel was watery and medium carbonated. The flavour was sweet acid and wet steel. Yum Yum! |

Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 2 341ml bottle <br> 5.0% ABV <br> This is some god awful beer.
