A bottom fermenting light beer utilizing Canadian barley malts and selected aroma and bittering hops to produce a fine, clean, crisp refreshing beer.

My current "go-to" beer. It tastes better than the big brand light beers for less money. I get the 473 ml cans. I like a cold Carling Light with my pizza.

A friends choice over Keystone Light; "It's a buck cheaper."
Taste is corn, straw, no malt profile to be found. Very light and watery mouthfeel, pale colour that has little to no head. Barely there abv content makes slamming these back farily easy. On a nice spring like day, I'm not gonna complain. Not reccommended for subsequent purchase.

I noticed this one missing from the file of this lovely site so I decided time for some martyrdom.
The beer pours a very pale clear straw colour with a minimal white head that fizzles to nothing pretty quickly. It has fairly prominent carbonation as well.
Smells skunky when initially poured out of the can but that subsides to very muted scents of very ripe grapes and corn.
Tastes of pretty much nothing at all, water that's about it, as it warms some very very mild malt bread tones come in but I stress mild.
It drinks really easy which is what it's designed for after all, thin body, dry finish.
It's a light beer that's for sure.
