Lumberjack Lager is Hudsons way of honouring Canada’s woodsmen. It's our golden yellow, medium-bodied lager with a mild, sweet malty flavour and just a hint of hop. Think cool and refreshing, like skinny dipping at the lake over a long weekend.

On tap in Calgary. Clear golden color. White head. Smooth and easy drinking lager. Nothing special, but solid. Some bread. Some biscuit. More malty than hoppy.

Draft, one of the house beers at Hudson's Canadian Tap House, brewed by Big Rock.
This beer is a clear, yellow gold color, with a thin foamy head. A few spider web lines of lace stick to the glass, head dissipates rather quickly.
It smells of some grain, and mild grassy hops.
The taste has some grainy malt, and a bit of earthy, grass finish. A bit lemon sourness left in the aftertaste.
The carbonation, body and mouth feel are all medium, average.
Overall, pretty average, you can tell it's Big Rock.

Golden yellow apperance with minimal head that disappears quickly. Smell is malty and grainy with grassy hops.
Taste is mostly of grass and grain, picked some malt and barley. Suprisingly creamy. Light-medium bodied with moderate carbonation. After is dry and a bit spicy.
Not a bad beer, but kind kind of bland. Taste seems like it needs an extra kick to it. It is refreshing though, wonder how Beaver Tail is in comparison.

18oz pint, I guess, one of two new house brands at Hudson's Canadian Tap House, an Edmonton-based sports bar, and brewed by Big Rock brewery in Calgary.
This beer appears a clear, medium golden yellow colour, with one skinny finger of weakly foamy and soapy bone-white head, which dissipates quickly in the warm spring patio air, leaving but a few specks of sparsely strewn craggy lace around the glass.
It smells lightly of crisp barley grain, cold butter, a touch of corn grits, and mild earthy, weedy, and grassy hops. The taste is grainy white crackers, wan pale malt, some diacetyl astringency, corn pone, stale lemon juice, and more grassy, and kind of weedy, hops.
The carbonation is moderate, just a wee fizziness presiding, the body decently weighty for a lager, and smooth enough, I suppose. It finishes off-dry, the lingering cheap graininess offset only somewhat by the herbal, weedy essence.
As I actually like the food at Hudson's but have been bored/appalled by their long line of BMC-only taps, it is nice to see any upward movement in that lineup. This is not a huge leap in quality, but as is the way of things around here, baby steps are better than the status quo, yeah?
