473ml can <br> 2.5% ABV <br> Canned On: June 1, 2021 <br> LCBO Outlet #649 (Milton, Ontario, Canada - Sobey's Plaza)<br> August 20, 2021<br> $3.15<br> The beer pours a translucent light to medium gold colour with a generous white fluffy head which dissipates within 2-3 minutes.

It’s actually quite good as a light refreshing drink. Not very beer like, but still something one can reach for when they want a beer.
