Handwritten notes: A smooth but unlikeable brew. A nice Canadian taste but a disappointing lack of boldness. I think that this is the same type of taste that "Pilsner" is striving for. As any Big Fellah will tell you, Alberta is "Pil Country" so I don't blame AK for trying to tap into that market. Wait a minute... yes I do. Give your head a shake, man. I can't believe that Alberta is so blue collar that they will drink donkey piss if it gets them drunk. There have to be a few accountants or something out there whose taste buds haven't been burned away by tar fumes and Player's Lights. Am I wrong?
